Unvaccinated NBA players, staff must test weekly for COVID-19
ESPN ^ | Aug 30, 2022

Unvaccinated NBA players and team personnel must submit to weekly COVID-19 testing this season, the league told its clubs in a memo Tuesday.

There will be certain exceptions to that mandate, the league said, such as when the unvaccinated person is considered to have been "recently recovered" from COVID-19.

But for all others, testing will not be required except when "directed by their team physician or a league physician or government authority," the league said. Face masks also will not be required, though they will be recommended for use indoors in cities where coronavirus levels are classified by government officials as high.

Covid, the only pandemic in history where you have to be tested to know you are sick!

This stupidity has to end soon. The only thing the so-called vaxx does is increase your chance of death or life-threatening side effects.

So the jabbed can have the Coof but don’t need to test and spread the Coof to the jabbed but unjabbed need to get tested to see if they are sick.

Stupid people way outnumber infected people at this point.

We need a vaccine for stupidity.

Because Science!

Get cleared on a Friday test. Go to COVID-palooza all weekend. Show up at work Monday with your weekly test results from Friday. Cough all over everyone at work.

Meanwhile, your coworker who got the Jim Jones Jab and repeatedly gets COVID doesn't have to show any test, walks right into work and coughs all over everyone too.

Science!

Have you considered that perhaps the vaxseems are a way to rid us of these meddlesome stupid people in our world?

CDC streamlines COVID-19 guidance to help the public better protect themselves and understand their risk

Recommending screening testing of asymptomatic people without known exposures will no longer be recommended in most community settings.

LeBron got vaccinated. Can I laugh? Why would I laugh? Go up this page and read about Covid and embalmers.

I have a Covid proof of vaccination card. It’s real, I swear:)

Not even sick, but "positive."
