Can requiring it to enter a casino be far behind? Why are the singling out this group? What is the difference from your average table game or poker room? Maybe ZK is right about Caesars.
Nevada gets worse by the day under Sissylak.
I’m sure Dan will have a lot to say on this.
There is a war going on in poker between the vaxxed and unvaxxed. Vaccinated players are raising hell about the unvaccinated. The vaccine helps but it doesn't mean you won't get covid. A percentage of the vaxxed are still going to get covid. They don't want their chances to go up by playing with the unvaccinated.Originally Posted by The Boz
The high stakes cash game players at Bellagio just announed they will quit any game if the house sits an unvaccinated player in it.
"More importantly, mickey thought 8-4 was two games over .500. Argued about it. C'mon, man. Nothing can top that for math expertise. If GWAE ever has you on again, you can be sure I'll be calling in with that gem.'Nuff said." REDIETZ
Poker is full of stupid liberals and their main henchman is Negreanu.
Yeah, Negreanu is a wokeass libtard idiot. But I don't blame the vaxxed for not wanting to play with the unvaxxed. Getting vaxxed significantly cuts the risk of getting covid but does not end the risk of getting covid. The vaxxed, by getting the vaccine, have played a significant role in stemming the spread of covid. The unvaxxed haven't. The vaxxed have a legitimate argument that they shouldn't be made to play with unvaxxed because of the higher risk of getting covid.Originally Posted by jbjb

Good post, Mickey: my thoughts exactly.
What, Me Worry?
They probably either had to do this or cancel it to do something different from their rather bizzare previous policy for what would happen with a symptomatic vs non symptomatic case and vaxxed vs unvaxxed close contacts.
The vaccine is a fraud and none of them work.Originally Posted by mickeycrimmYeah, Negreanu is a wokeass libtard idiot. But I don't blame the vaxxed for not wanting to play with the unvaxxed.

I'm not getting the poison jab under any circumstance and any of these self-righteous pro-vax types get in my face then they will be picking their teeth up off the ground. I already smacked some whiny, leftist beta-bitch in the mouth after he confronted me for not wearing a mas outdoors, hey hey.
lolz, we went from the unvaccinated are killing people to the vaccine helps a little bit.

There's no way to believe anything the govt or media is saying about the vaccine. Age has nothing to do with the vulnerability of testing positive. Results are all over the map. All I can begin to believe is that those who have fairly serious to serious pre-existing conditions are better off taking the shot than not--and maybe only because of peace of mind . Other than that it's a crapshoot. My wife and I, both not fully vaccinated, are retirees in good health who have constantly been to restaurants, casinos, and gatherings in different parts of the country during this Covid BS, and we're still operating on all cylinders.Originally Posted by jbjbThe vaccine is a fraud and none of them work.Originally Posted by mickeycrimmYeah, Negreanu is a wokeass libtard idiot.

The longer this nonsense goes on the more paranoid many people will become. This Covid is no more or less "dangerous" than the flu or the common cold. All three will have the same effect on those with weakened immune systems. Covid just came along when politics were at its lowest level ever. And who knows what the real long term or even short term problems await the vaccinated? And masks are even stupider.

Hmm. I don't know about that. One of my Loyal Customers SCOFFED at the Covid-19 Pandemic, calling it a Political Hoax... He was singing a different album altogether when he himself ended up testing positive for Covid-19...Originally Posted by Rob.SingerThere's no way to believe anything the govt or media is saying about the vaccine.

Take comfort in the fact that no one is actually backing up his wishes to have you permanantly banned.
Smart is knowing a Tomato is a fruit.
Wise is knowing a Tomato doesn't belong in a fruit salad.
I am glad to get my full posting rights back!Thank you Dan!
Some of you guys are freaking geniuses. You won't take a vaccine created by the best medical and scientific experts that reduces severe illness, hospitalizations and deaths significantly, because you have decided that these medical and science experts are out to get you, when most don't have a political bone in their body. (I suspect many are republicans). But instead you listen to nut jobs on social media, with zero medical expertise, now telling people to take animal medication meant to de-worm cows and other such nonsense.Good luck with that! At least you won't have cow worms when you die of covid.
Not surprised at some of you, but a few I am surprised as you are smarter than this. We have the smartest and best scientific minds in the world. Means nothing if you don't trust them.
Since this is important...regarding the "we" in the sentence above, I have my doubts. The case is not nearly a slam dunk against Ivermectin, and not nearly a slam dunk for vaccine efficacy.
Ivermectin is NOT hydroxychloroquine. Just because anti-science Republicans are for something doesn't make it wrong.

The above sounds like a right wing hype job, but appearing on a right wing hype job website does not make the article itself a right wing hype job. This is a very important rule to remember.
And then we have this:

This was not a close contest. Having had the original Covid strain is much, much more effective against getting Delta than the vaccine.
I will tackle this in my blog in days ahead, not from the medical perspective because I am unqualified, but from an analysis of American media coverage (I was a journalism major originally, and have worked for small newspapers), and my degree is in Writing. I will absolutely eviscerate a piece CNN did regarding Ivermectin. And after you read what I have to say, you will agree with me.
So stay tuned.
KewlJ, I love you. You sound like my friends in academia, who are turning a blind eye to the fact that Republican-bad, Progressive-good is not really a way to evaluate sources.
"best scientific and medical minds?" It's all about getting the money moving into big pharma's pockets kew. Just like we supposedly now have the "best political administration and military minds" in charge of the Afghan pullout....and 13 Marines get slaughtered along with 95 locals.
The "best" isn't always the best, and perceived motives are rarely what they seem.
If it is true that having had covid provides more protection than the vaccine, then these vaccine mandates make little logical sense IF the subject previously had covid/can prove current antibodies.Originally Posted by redietz
The company that makes the drug, Merck is issuing repeated statements that the drug does not work in treating covid. That is an odd strategy for moving money into their own pockets.Originally Posted by Rob.Singer
The fact is there have been a few trials that show some promise. Some of them very small. The first one I read about was a trial in Pakistan, I think. 72 patients, were divided into 3 group and each group given a different "trial" medication to see if there was any effect. So the 2 dozen or so given Ivermectin fared slightly better. recovered in a little less time. Means nothing. Suppose that group had 1 or 2 less people with surpressed immune systems, or diabletes, or obese or whatever risk factors.
This is why we don't approve anything on results of a few trials, especially conducted in placed that we don't know how they were conducted. If extensive trials continue to show some benefit, then it might be approved as a treatment. Until then, it is nothing. Currently people are taking huge doses of the drug meant for horses and cows and coming down with all kinds of serious, in some cases ;life threatening side effects, tremers and heart issues among them.
It is amazing that the very same people screaming that the vaccines were not properly tested, when these vaccines aren't new....they have been working on this vaccine, before covid popped up, and it has been thoroughly tested. But the same people complaining that they haven't been thoroughly tested are willing to run out and take some horse and cow medicaation based on a few trials in some countries that we have no idea how they were conducted.
You people are simply retardted. The CDC and food and drug admin, is NOT out to get people. They are top people in their feilds who have devoted their lives to medicine. And it isn't even about money for these people. If it was about money, every one of them could make much more in the private sector, working for some big Pharma.
Seriously people, use your God given brains for something other than paranoia. Everyone isn't out to get you. Everything isn't a conspiracy.
That would seem to be a reasonable conclusion. But proving that people have existing antibodies would require testing of everyone in the U.S. for those elements of immunity not generated by the vaccine.
Also, and this is important in undercutting something like the WSOP initiative -- Delta virus load is just about as great in vaccinated people who are carrying the disease as in unvaccinated. And the Delta virus load is a thousand times the viral load of the original strain. So having a bunch of vaccinated people at the WSOP, who are more likely to be asymptomatic BECAUSE they are vaccinated, does not really do anything to stop virus spread. In fact, it may make it worse. Now the people who are vaccinated and get the virus will experience milder symptoms and be much less likely to die than unvaccinated, but they are spreading the virus just as effectively as unvaccinated. So a vaccine mandate may prevent people who attend the WSOP from dying, but it doesn't do much of anything to stop virus spread. In fact, it may be a classic super-spreader.
And finally, read it and weep (to use a poker line):
