    The results of the clinical trials for Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are published and in the public domain. The Pfizer vaccine tested 40,000 and Moderna about 30,000 participants receiving either dummy injection (placebo) or the vaccine. They followed the participants and 95% of persons developed COVID were in the group that received the dummy injection. The 5% participants with COVID in the vaccine group, none of them had serious disease (Moderna) and only 1 had serious disease in Pfizer trial. This is scientific proof. If you asking for non-scientific proof, I do not have any.

    They should add to the list of gambling addiction one more question: Are you able to wait 3-4 weeks for the 2nd dose of the vaccine?

    The pfizer study looked at 1 week after the 2nd dose and Moderna 2 weeks after the 2nd dose. So, 2 weeks after the 2nd dose, you should be as good as new to go to casino.

    Heard Al Roker on Today Show this morning say he just kept hitting refresh on his browser over the weekend and got an appt at Lenox Hill. He also said he got no special treatment for sign-up or eligibility, just that he's over 65.

    I checked eBay for a used vaccine. No luck.

    Coincidental that he wound up at the hospital of the stars, isn't it?

    No, China is where you get knock-off vaccines.

    Had a CT scan there once. Nowhere near as nice as Langone's CT scan department.

    Yeah, Norm. Just head down to Canal St. You can find vaccines behind the knock-off DVDs.

    I took time off from playing before the outbreak started, and that break has ended up being a lot longer than I thought. Luckily, I was financially prepared. During that time, just prior to the pandemic, a fellow AP asked me, so why aren't you playing full-time anymore? Because I don't have to! 10 years ago I was under pressure to perform, under the gun, places to go, people to see, money to make, bills to pay, all that. I've enjoyed the time off in the last couple of years. I'm still training, tuned and peaked and ready to roll, assuming I will resume playing again at some point. I'll play when it's safe to do so and the mood strikes me instead of having to pound out grueling hours of play, day after day, week after week out of financial necessity to do so.

    Midwest Player, I hope you did not fall through your roof or something? How's the snow storms out there?

    The J&J results don't look good. Lower efficacy in general, lower for severe illness, and lower against S. African variant.
