The population density theory has already been disproven by the science and data from Bronx vs Manhattan viral patterns over the past 18 months.

Multi-Gen households = old farts, get the vaccine, duh.

Homelessness = for some reason, COVID-19 hasn't decimated the ranks of the homeless. I wonder why that is?

Rolovich is on thin ice as I posted before. However, WSU is an outlier in the pac 12. I have reconsidered and think he survives.

Well, he answered your question before you asked it by citing Manhattan vs the Bronx.

Since you’re too lazy to look it up yourself, the summary is that Manhattan has a much higher population density than the Bronx, yet its infection rate was somewhere around half the Bronx’s.

There’s also this wider study:

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full...3.2020.1777891

Maybe one day, around the 100th century, AD, or something, thick headed progressives will realize that you don’t use a hammer for every problem and try to force your hammer on everyone. Don’t silence alternative views and smear the messenger. That is how civil wars start/will start.

There is plenty of data directly correlating Vitamin D deficiency to respiratory virus trends.

Getting everyone’s Vitamin D levels to >30ng/mL at a minimum and for best results >50ng/mL by supplementing would have done far more good. But you can’t scare people to death when the solution is something they can buy from Costco or any other grocery/pharmacy for $10/bottle.

Interesting possible cause to catching COVID-19, zero. The rolling hatefest continues.

Vaccination=putting your head between your knees and kissing your a©® goodbye.

I choose life itself.

Rolling hate fest? Really don’t know what or who you are talking about. If you are talking about WSU coach Rolovich atleast spell his name correctly. He refused the vaccination. I will say it again, not a good look for a Washington State public employee.

What are you? Tag partners?

It is immaterial to the comparison he was trying to make between high-density metropolitan counties, on the one hand, and low-density and largely rural counties, on the other. Both have factors that can drive Covid infection rates up or down. It was worse than simply comparing apples and oranges. It was cherry picking. Cut out the infernal Gobbledygook!

Even if it wasn't immaterial, what kind of relevant expertise do the readers of or contributors to the Journal of the American Planning Association have on Covid? None, as far as I can tell.

Why should anyone push something on a person with regards to medical/health? That goes against a person's civil rights. A vaccinated person can not only catch COVID-19 but they can also infect another person with the virus, too. So, tell me all-knowing ones, why get the stupid shot? Why waste your time? Mr. Rolovich doesn't want to get jabbed with vaccines that aren't even approved by the good old FDA. Think about that.

People have lost their sense of caring for others during COVID-19. He has every right under the sun NOT to get stuck with the jab. More power to him. The WSU football team is in better hands than I thought.

As I have earlier mentioned I have been vaccinated.
I wasn’t scared of getting sick.
We already been sick.
Only reasons for the family and I to do it was for my elderly mother and to open up the country.

I currently am on the fence with this subject.
I do value our freedom and now that we are finally getting back to normal I really don’t care if people don’t get vaccinated or if they want to wear several masks along with the vaccine if that is what they want as long as the country continues to open.

If a person chooses not to get vaccinated and gets sick I won’t feel all that bad.
I might for a couple minutes if I knew them but not overly when there was an option.

I think it’s time we all moved forward.
We have cost our children to much already and they need to stay in school.
The financial price we paid and still will pay is ludicrous.

All that said, I do not trust the politics on either side.
There are liars all around.

I am also not a fan of Fauci one bit.
Nor am I a fan the person that scream masks on or your going to jail at the capitol and yet lets thousands of infected illegals flood into our country.

Civil rights vs doing the right thing, IMO. The more who get vaccinated the faster we get back to normal. As cases surge again, for the 4th wave! Those who use their civil rights to not take the vaccine are slowing down the recovery. Give me a break.
