I keep seeing ""The UT Board of Regents Chairman Kevin Eltife "has the money lined up" to pay Big 12 buyout."" That is really nice for UT, but Does anyone know if Oklahoma has a buyout and "has the money lined up"? I assume they will come up with it if they haven't already, but I am curious.

So what is the end game of all this grand illusion across all continents?

So almost invariably every nation world wide is supporting this sensationalism to fool you?? Iraq, Israel, Iran, France, Japan Italy, UK, Russia etc have all planned this giant political agenda agreeing with each other? I cant think of any other topic that so many adversary countries have ever agreed on. Its a world wide conspiracy! the world is out to get you.

Some vaccines take years, decades even, and grueling, multi-stage trials to vet before they are released for public use to make sure there is *no* scientific reason to fear the long term effects of a vaccine. This went faster because most vaccines do not have hundreds of thousands of doctors world wide working on them with a tremendous sense of urgency at the same time. Serious side effects that could cause a long-term health problem are extremely unlikely following any vaccination, including COVID-19 vaccination. Vaccine monitoring has historically shown that side effects generally happen within six weeks of receiving a vaccine dose.

I read something a few days ago saying merger in 2025, but I don't remember if it was a reliable source or just a random guy's twitter.

It lessons the symptoms, Lowers the viral load and reduces the time of infection and length of time it is contagious. With small viral loads a vaccinated person with antibodies can fight it off before it becomes contagious. NOW, If a carrier in the contagious period comes and coughs directly in your mouth, the vaccine will likely only help a little. Delta+ is said to be pluming. that means there are little clouds of contagion around a carrier. Without a vaccine you could catch it just walking through the plume. With the vaccine your body can fight the low viral load of the plume often before it becomes contagious.

AUGOO said: Let's do the M&M thing. Got a bowl of M&M's. 177 million of the them. At least 7,000 of them are lethal. How many you want? OK lets play, but you have to play too. to make this match reality there cant just be one bowl. You must choose vaccine or no vaccine bowl one OR bowl two. so your pretend numbers in your bowl has 177,000,000 M&Ms and 7,000 poison M&Ms. A .00095% (?) chance of issues (even smaller percent are deaths) Bowl 2 has 35,197,171 (real cases) 626,7619 (just real deaths, not even counting other issues which increase the final percentage by a lot.) are deadly poison. 1.7% chance of death (that is not even including non death hospitalizations and other issues). You have a choice. which is the intelligent choice? BTW: Over 2 Billion vaccinations have been given world wide. Millions of people in the United States have received COVID-19 vaccines under the most intense safety monitoring in U.S. history. Serious side effects that could cause a long-term health problem are extremely unlikely following any vaccination, including COVID-19 vaccination. Vaccine monitoring has historically shown that side effects generally happen within six weeks of receiving a vaccine dose

Fat and out of shape are not contagious.

JFYI Covid-19 has killed 250,000 people in the US. (in 9 months as of last November) That's 10 times the deaths from car crashes in a year https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/18/health/covid-19-deaths-us-250k-trnd/index.html and car accidents do not spread exponentially

False. Absolutely false. If the virus didn't mutate at all this may be the case. But this virus is so widespread there are mutations popping up everywhere. alpha (original) , beta, gamma , delta, delta+, and lambda variants are already causing issues. More contagious, just as deadly, hitting younger people harder. These are just the one's that have made it to the USA. As long as people are spreading it, the more variants we will get.

It is not that simple. They are taking the lives of others by becoming a spreader and a vector for mutations. There are already at least 2 mutations that are just as serious but more contagious. This virus is mutating extremely fast right now because there are so many cases (and still so many unvaccinated) .... symptoms or not. Some of the hardest stance governors against doing anything are changing their tune. Hutchinson in arkansas has done nothing but tell everyone to do the right thing, and is now starting to panic since Covid is way out of hand here. Sounds like Ivy is getting rattled by her earlier decisions also. I'm not 100% sure but I think DeSantis in FL has started asking people to get vaccinated after naysaying the virus for over a year. I am not the government, I am not mandating anyone get the vaccine. I am asking politely to anyone that has reservations about the vaccine to please sincerely reconsider your view. Remain open minded and review all the latest information on the subject. I hope you do the right thing.

And FSU since they tucked tail and ran away from the SEC under Bowden. FSU and Notre Dame can play with themselves for all I care.

/s I see where this is going. Eventually we will have just one giant SEC conference. We can call it the SEC-NCAA We can divide it up into divisions based loosely on geographics, ... Like: The SEC Big 10, The SEC SWC, The SEC Big 12, The SEC ACC, The SEC PAC12, SEC west, SEC east, etc. We can even have a couple of independent teams involved. /s

someday everyone will be in the SEC.

Just spitballin' here....completely changing the dynamics: Old school SEC division vs New SEC school division. Geographic divisions create a small competition between East and west etc. But old school SEC and new school team division would create a more intense rivalry between divisions. Who is better the old guard / founders, or the new SEC teams? SECCG would get even more intense within a couple years.

no one thinks it is a cure. There is NO cure for covid. The long and short term effects of covid have been documented and are being studied constantly. 5 times more vaccinations have been given than actual covid cases in the US. Yet, Covid cases have had un-proportionately more issues and more serious issues, and it is not even close.

Almost everything yo are saying is misinformation. Vaccinated people are getting the mutations now. https://www.wate.com/news/1000-breakthrough-cases-of-covid-19-reported-in-tennessee/ "But for someone like a totally healthy, world class athlete, 20 year old football player, the known risk of covid is microscopic." Tho sort of true, it is more of a deflection than anything. The youngsters can carry it and be another vector that may cause a mutation that causes break through cases. "The science says healthy young people have virtually nothing to worry about." That is changing as information comes out on the variants. Hospitals have already seen the age of patients drop into the 30's lately. many hospitals are are seeing more children. We had 2 children die here in Arkansas recently.

They should be free to make choices. But people should WANT to get the vaccine. People need to stop believing in social media misinformation. To live in society you have to have rules. People need to have some amount concern for the public good. You cant walk around town with a box of matches lighting them and tossing them everywhere. That is what people are doing that are not getting vaccinated. Spreading the virus with little sparks of contagion turning into surges of patients. A big enough surge and we will likely have more mutations.

Here are just a few of the placing having surges again. some the same as the peak, some approaching the peak , some hospitals have more than ever. https://cbs12.com/news/local/florida-reports-highest-daily-covid-case-count-since-january https://www.readfrontier.org/stories/coronaviruscases-and-hospitalizations-are-rising-in-oklahoma/ https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/23/us/covid-hospitals-florida.html https://www.al.com/news/2021/07/alabama-hospitals-filling-up-after-self-inflicted-wound-from-covid.html https://www.kmbc.com/article/university-of-kansas-health-system-says-hospital-beds-are-filling-up-fast/37096066#

the virus IS dangerous in the short term and proving to have long term effects on a large percentage of patients. The vaccine is much safer in the short term and will most likely be safer in the long run. No one knows for sure that the vaccine will be safe in the long run, but we have seen what the virus can do in the short and semi-long run ( lung transplants and "Long Covid")

in some places, but in the places where people are refusing the vaccines cases are as bad as last winter RIGHT NOW. Arkansas :UAMS little rock. Oklahoma, Florida, and others are growing very fast, Alabama etc. https://cbs12.com/news/local/florida-reports-highest-daily-covid-case-count-since-january https://www.readfrontier.org/stories/coronaviruscases-and-hospitalizations-are-rising-in-oklahoma/ https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/23/us/covid-hospitals-florida.html https://www.al.com/news/2021/07/alabama-hospitals-filling-up-after-self-inflicted-wound-from-covid.html https://www.kmbc.com/article/university-of-kansas-health-system-says-hospital-beds-are-filling-up-fast/37096066#

So, the whole world is in on the conspiracy and backing these American lies?

It doesn't need to mutate into a more deadly form. It is strong enough already. It is showing to become more contagious but not become less deadly. AND, death is not the only negative outcome.

alcohol , burgers and cars accidents are not highly contagious. Would less kids die if there were no driving laws?
