Its weird, but me immediately knowing exactly what that product was actually made me take a while to figure out what was supposed to be funny about the picture.

That seems reasonable. You can still make significant shifts with that, but can't jam five guys around short when there's a runner on third, for that batter that only pulls his ground balls.

Reply to comment by Tetrylene in New evidence suggests that ‘hybrid’ immunity, the result of both vaccination and a bout of COVID-19, can provide partial protection against reinfection for at least eight months.

I'd be curious as to see the math for that. It may be accurate, but its a pretty weird stat to be using, even if it is. Which I am doubting.
I'm seeing stats saying roughly 6 million hospitalizations so far, and roughly 100 million cases.
There have been roughly 670 million vaccine doses. If it took 70,000 doses to prevent a hospitalization, that would mean the vaccine has only prevented roughly 10,000 hospitalizations vs the 6 million total. That doesn't remotely add up, considering most of the research puts the odds of hospitalization at about 10x higher for the unvaccinated.
I'll gladly look at your source material if you want to provide it.

Assuming you survived getting the disease the first time, while unvaccinated.
Personally, didn't think it was worth the risk.

I just assumed that the leather wallet conveniently placed beside him was the intended treat.

There were a number of years in my youth where Vodka smelled like straight up vomit to me, and I know it was entirely psychological.
