I'm not suggesting that vaccinations should replace testing or vice versa.

What I am stating is my opinion: that there are people who have sound reasons for not receiving these particular vaccines. I am glad that the franchise agreed to refund their money, and I would like for the team to go a step further and place them at the front of the line for next year's season tickets. It would be an act of good will and a recognition that just because the franchises interest and the fan's interest do not align on this issue that the fan should somehow be punished.

I have no idea where you comment about infected people believing they should have the right to infect other people came from, no on has suggested that.

You asked the question as to why someone with natural immunity should subject themselves to ten or more tests. You then tried to connect folks who maybe should not be vaccinated to having a Q-tip shoved up their nose. To me that's trying to conflate vaccination and testing.

Everyone should be tested. Full stop. Period. Everyone can be a carrier. Anyone who doesn't want to be tested in is fact promoting the idea that they have the right to infect others because their status is unknown.

I'm not getting into the vaccine issue at all. If someone wants to go to the game, go get tested. If it's negative, then enjoy the game.

And no, if someone doesn't want to get tested, they should not be rewarded by cutting into the line for next year. That time is over. It is clear that everyone is going to roll with the pandemic, and that anyone who refuses to try to stem it should suffer the consequences of that decision.

The reason we're back to 160,000 cases a day in the US is because there are all these people, almost all unvaccinated, that won't get tested, won't get a vaccine, and won't wear a mask. We can float down the river with all the denial.

That's my opinion.
