Athletes Who Had COVID Will Be Considered ‘Fully Vaccinated,’ NCAA Says in New Guidelines

The NCAA on Thursday released its new COVID-19 (WuFlu) guidance for winter sports, and the guidance contains some important news.

As ESPN reports, the NCAA’s COVID-19 (WuFlu) Medical Advisory Group updated its definition of “fully vaccinated” to account for various new vaccinations, boosters, and immunity factors.

“Fully vaccinated individuals now include those within two months of receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, five months of receiving the Pfizer vaccine series or six months of receiving the Moderna vaccine series;” reports ESPN staff writer Jeff Borzello, “and individuals who are beyond the aforementioned timeline and have received the booster vaccine.”

But perhaps the biggest development came in the following line.

“Individuals within 90 days of a documented COVID-19 (WuFlu) infection fall within the equivalent of ‘fully vaccinated.’”

One problem—millions of people have had “undocumentated” Covid. I kept my positive at home test, but I never got it “confirmed” and so likely will be required to get boosters forever in order to travel, I imagine. . .

Nope.

The biggest development is that they are requiring athletes who did NOT have covid, to get another booster shot to be labeled “ fully vaxxed”

Those who took JnJ have to take another shot….after only 2 months.

“Fully vaccinated individuals now include those within two months of receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, five months of receiving the Pfizer vaccine series or six months of receiving the Moderna vaccine series;” reports ESPN staff writer Jeff Borzello, “and individuals who are beyond the aforementioned timeline and have received the booster vaccine.”

Yes, but not in Australia.

90 days? Oughta be whenever. Still it’s kinda progress... Somebody getting nervous about all the athletes falling over dead, and all the football programs about to go into extreme winter training drills?

Slowly but surely changing the narrative, hoping the normal mindless drone population never notices the difference.

That’s the way I read it. 90 days for immunity? That doesn’t even make sense... Immunity means just that and the vaccines are proven they don’t stop the spread of the virus.

“Thank God someone has some sense.”

They’re trying to split the baby in half. They don’t want athletes dropping dead, because it makes conservatives look right, and they don’t want to admit that the vaccine is stupid and dangerous for young people, because it also makes conservatives look right.

So...they try this.

This would seem to leave it open for regular students to skip the clot shots and stay as pure bloods.
