Let's ask how many teams lost games due to anti-vax players being out for one or more games.
We can. But that wasn't the thread prediction/title, was it. I know! Maybe you can start a new thread with that! Of course, it will be after the fact but don't let that get in your way.

NFL requires coaches and some staff get COVID vaccine boosters
https://www.axios.com/nfl-tier-1-2-...b32-8caa-10862124465c.html?ute_campaign=onhrs
The NFL is requiring vaccinated coaches, team personnel and front office staff in Tier 1 and 2 to receive COVID-19 booster shots by Dec. 27, according to a memo the league sent to teams Monday.
Why it matters: If employees don't get a booster by the deadline, they risk losing their vaccination status, an NFL requirement for Tier 1 and 2 staff.
Driving the news: The NFL said in the memo that it's implementing the CDC's booster shot recommendation due to "the increased prevalence of the virus in our communities."

- A record 37 players tested positive for the virus on Monday, per the NFL Network.
- Exemptions apply to NFL personnel who are "not eligible for a booster pursuant to the CDC definition" and those "in the 90-day test holiday after a confirmed positive COVID test" under the protocols, according to the memo.
- Individuals who received monoclonal antibodies within the immediately preceding 90 days and those "whose 'S' antibody level on an antibody test administered via ... BioReference Lab at the club facility is 2500 or greater" also don't have to meet the requirement.
Not looking good for the NFL as the cases and sidelined players grow rapidly...

Not looking good for the supposed 99.5% effective vaccine.
Nobody ever stated the Covid vaccine has 99.5% efficacy or effectiveness. Don't confuse effectiveness or efficacy with vaccinated breakthrough rate.
As outlined by all the data -- the current Covid vaccinated breakthrough rate is below 0.5%. However as I noted multiple times this will likely increase greatly under vaccine-evasive Omicron variant -- which is what the world and sports teams are experiencing now.
Imagine thinking vaccine breakthrough rate would be comparable among a population following COVID guidelines of social distancing and masking and a closed quarter team of players w/o masks?
GWB-Trading wrong again.
The study found the vaccine’s effectiveness was strongest, at 96.2%, between one week and two months after receiving the second dose. It declined an average of 6% every two months, according to the study, which signed up more than 44,000 people across the U.S. and other countries. The efficacy after “four to six months was approximately 84%,” Bourla said.

It’s an amazing thing, a vaccine that loses strength over time but it’s break through rates stay consistent.
These metrics are useless.
