And.. another Arizona Cardinal (the head coach) goes down with a breakthrough COVID case.

The Cardinals are 100% vaccinated.
PS- Apparently not just the head coach.
PS2- The Cardinals were on the cusp of “intensive protocols”, so perhaps we’ll see what that is.

1- First of all, framing that Biden is a victim of circumstance is absurd.

But wait, there's more lunacy (cont).
2- Except for two notable Senators that media and activists chase with Kayaks and chase into bathrooms...

...who are blocking Biden's entire legislative agenda, sure..👇🏽
3- It sure is good to be Dem.

You don't CAUSE anything. You just "preside over" or "face criticism" for your completely self-made disasters.

1- "The number of COVID-19 infections in Maine has jumped 35 percent since July 1.."

I can #SaveYouAClick re why this is happening. The vaccine effectiveness wanes rapidly over time.

pressherald.com/2021/10/07/qa-…
2- "While Maine has among the highest vaccination rates in the nation, some fully vaccinated people are still contracting the coronavirus – and some have been hospitalized or died."

As with all these stories, first acknowledge the obvious. Then spring to the defense.
3- "That’s because the vaccines do not prevent infection with the coronavirus. Instead, vaccines are designed to teach the body how to fight off an infection by triggering an aggressive immune system response that will hopefully prevent severe illness."

That's not what was sold.

1- Welp this is quite something, worth threading.

"The growing split between Biden’s team and outside health experts on boosters threatens to disrupt a key source of support the administration has relied on to sell its vaccination drive to the American public."

Rut Roh.
2- "It undermines credibility not just for [federal health] agencies but for the administration overall,” said Irwin Redlener, director of the Pandemic Resource and Response Initiative at Columbia University. “Somebody needs a communication lesson. Maybe many people do.”

Ouch.
3- "The Sept. 27 call was originally planned for the week before. The White House abruptly rescheduled it after the CDC’s independent vaccine advisory committee recommended that the Pfizer-BioNTech booster be reserved for high-risk groups, including the elderly."

Clown show.

1- “Moreland, who was activated for the first time this season against the Panthers, is the sixth Texans player to be sidelined due to an illness.”

Lol, the memo must have gone out to stop calling it COVID.

2- Yes, what on Earth could this mysterious “illness” be.

Siri- How do I stop bringing attention to high # of breakthrough cases in almost all-vax’d NFL?

Siri response: 👇 Image

1- They’re trying so hard to convince everyone all these breakthrough infections are no big deal (cont).

startribune.com/faith-in-covid…
2- They keeping using that word “rare”. I do not think it means what they think it means.

Of course there is no mention that the CDC doesn’t even track breakthrough cases. Image
3- Not sure this set of paragraphs makes their case very well. Image
