Those “vaccines” the NFL (and pretty much everyone else) is pushing so hard took another hit as another coach has been sidelined with a positive Covid-19 test.
Earlier this week, we reported on Indianapolis Colts’ head coach Frank Reich getting the bad news. Now, Los Angeles Rams offensive line coach Kevin Carberry has tested positive.
Here’s the report from NBC News. Notice their very first sentence is their obligatory “nothing to see here, the vaccines totally work, y’all” lead-in:
Plenty of vaccinated players and staff will still test positive for COVID in 2021, even if vaccinated. In L.A., Rams offensive line coach Kevin Carberry currently falls in that category.
Rams coach Sean McVay told reporters on Wednesday that Carberry was absent from practice due to the positive result.
“He has got COVID right now and we’re going to try to see how quickly we can get him back,” McVay said. “But he’s fully vaccinated, and we’re hopeful to get him back sooner than later.”
For vaccinated players and staff, return to action occurs after a pair of negative tests at least 24 hours apart, with no minimum absence. For unvaccinated players and staff, a mandatory 10-day break remains in place.
“I think we’re continuing to learn about this because he’s fully vaccinated,” McVay said of Carberry. “He has done everything the right way. The good thing is with the parameters around the protocols, if he’s got two negative tests within 24 hours separated, then you can end up returning. And we’re hopeful that that’ll be sooner than later. But you got guys like [offensive assistant] Nick Jones, [offensive assistant] Zak Kromer, have done a great job. We always collaborate as a coaching staff, so we’ve got a lot of great coaches that will pick up the slack. The good thing is what we learned from last year, he can still run a lot of the meetings from a virtual setting. There’s nothing like being physically present with guys, but he’s done an excellent job being able to adjust accordingly.”
The draconian rules in place for makes the NFL one of the most segregated places to work for unvaccinated players and staff. But they’re quickly becoming the norm as more companies, including other sports leagues, adopt similar protocols. Some have gone so far as to begin completely purging the unvaccinated. As the NY Post reports, New York real estate empire Durst Organization is giving the unvaccinated their notices:
The Durst Organization has a tough message for the hundreds of its non-union employees in its corporate offices: Get vaccinated or get fired.
The family-run, New York real estate empire expects its corporate employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 by Sept. 6, or they will be “separated from the company,” a spokesman confirmed to The Post.
Employees with a medical or religious objection to the jab will be dealt with on a case by case basis and may receive an “accommodation,” spokesman Jordan Barowitz added.
The policy was communicated to the company’s 350 corporate employees in June, Barowitz said, and was “driven by the wishes of the employees who want to work in a safer environment.”
As I’ve said many times in the past, it’s time for anyone who isn’t vaccinated to secure employment or revenue from organizations that have not embraced vaccine-hysteria. Sadly, the list is growing shorter every day.
NFL Ping!................
It almost worked!
A Positive test is quite different from getting sick from it.
The No Frontal Lobes will still require the players to vax. No one will notice because the Bash Lighter Melatonins have run off most of their fans.
“Falls to”?
I doubt he’s sick at all.
They do PCR tests on these guys all the time so they will at times test positive even though they are not sick, as their immune system neutralizes the virus.
A completely neutralized virus will still give a positive PCR result which U.S. Why positive tests for the virus are nit the same as having Covid-19.
Reports the vax is acting as a Delta catalyst. Say it ain’t so.
Nfzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I wish they’d identify the vaccine by name in stories like this...my uneducated guess is that the coach got the J&J vaccine as opposed to one of the others.
What is the difference in how infectious they are?
Are vaccinated positives spreading the virus?
Which hospital intensive care ward is he in? Is he expected to die?
At home most likely..................or golfing ....
I was of the understanding it was Pfizer vax having breakthrough Delta cases, hence Israel having issues right now and having used only Pfizer.
The question is, how are all of these vaccinated people getting the virus? I love how the goal posts keep getting moved by those pushing the vaccine!
“Falls” is misleading. Unless the coach has fairly significant physical symptoms, a more appropriate word to use might be “sidelines.’
My friend’s Mom just got diagnosed with the china virus..she got fully vaccinated 3 months ago..is in her mid 60s..on Friday she was babysitting her granddaughter(the girls father had recently had a bad sore throat, cough, and headache, he is also fully vaccinated) so when they went to visit the almost 2 yr was coughing and sneezing..Sunday night my friend’s Mom already started not feeling good, same symptoms as the son-in-law..went to the doc on Monday, was told no reason to be tested, only come back if you feel worse..the cough is not better so she went back to the doc today, took the 15 min rapid test, positive..so yeah another “Breakthrough” case as the commie media loves to call it
Israel says Pfizer Covid vaccine is just 39% effective as delta spreads, but still prevents severe illness

Israel to offer Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine booster to adults over 60, report says
https://www.foxnews.com/health/israel-pfizer-covid-19-vaccine-booster-adults-over-60-report
Israel says vaxxed people aren’t getting as sick as unvaxxed. Of course the same can be said of HCQ and Ivermectin but that wouldn’t make anyone a billionaire which means they wouldn’t be able to give kickbacks to politicians and bureaucrats. There would also be no insider trading.
I’m sure Dr Fubar would recommend they cancel the season immediately and all players in the gay NFL quarantine at home with double masks.
Having it is one thing; developing symptoms is another.
Two of my neighbors in their 50’s are fully vaxxed and got covid. One or two days of mild symptoms. Short of full prevention, a mild case is exactly what we should be glad about. The makers will dial in the best doses as more data comes in. Bottom line: The Trump vaccine is working.
