Returning to the mat after second vaccine...

Yea finished my 2nd dose a while back and gave it a month after that second dose to start rolling in March

wife wouldn’t let me roll in pandemic at all and this helped put her at ease, and honestly me too
 
I never stopped training, never had a vaccine. Nobody at my gym stopped either. Nobody died. Never knew anyone to get really sick either, flu like symptoms at worst. Oh Im a medical provider too working around covid since the start at urgent care. All you internet doctors are chicken shit and have literally destroyed society with your fear, thanks.

You don't sound very bright.

Yeah Im not very bright, I am a medical provider that spent 6.5 years in higher education and then have to sit back and watch all the sheep people freak out and destroy society over a virus that didnt even harm most of my 80-90 year old patients. Bunch of pathetic clowns you people are. Keep on doing what you're told by politicians and politically appointed doctors though.

Never stopped here either. Sheep will be sheep
 
What’s up, Sherdog?
Has anybody waited to come back to the regular class until they got their second vaccine? I know lots of you just trained like normal. I got my second vaccine today. I’m training at 6 am with one partner twice a week at the moment. I’m thinking about joining the regular class in two weeks.
Is anybody else in the same boat as me? What do you think? Just back to normal? How responsible do you need to be?
Thanks.

Well at my gym you need to show a PCR test every 2 weeks even if you are vaccinated. So I say it is okay to rejoin providing you have a negative PCR test.

A couple guys at the gym waited until their 2nd jab but personally if you still have to show a negative test before you step on the mats they might have well have come back earlier providing they had a negative result.

All that education and experience and yet here you are countering public health policy with anecdotal evidence in a sample size of you and your immediate peers (to the exclusion of anybody your gym mates and you may have infected, their outcomes, and the outcomes of those that they have infected). As if the transmission chain ends at your gym and all outcomes are measured there.

Like minded people are in here have friendly conversation about training after getting vaccinated, and your contribution is to blunder in with a "hurr durr people are sheep" comment.

This isn't a Covid debate thread, it's people talking about waiting to train till they've been vaccinated. Personal choices that have nothing to do with you and your bullshit. If your only contribution is to come in here for the sole purpose of being a dick, fuck off.

Plenty of places in the world for jerks to be rude to other people without provocation, let the grappling forum be free from that garbage please.

My gym has most stayed open consistently except for state mandated closures during the spring and for 4 weeks in late 2020. During those times it was streamed classes.

We had pod training and limited moving around the full mat (no class running in a circle, doing line drills that cover the full mat, handshakes, etc) with limited to no partner switching and drilling in place for a while.

Then that just seemed to all slip by the last quarter of 2020. Now it's back to pre covid practices.

Mask use is minimal, 0-3 people wearing a mask out of 15-20 any time I'm there.

We've had multiple outbreaks, much more since precautions were relaxed. It's gone through multiple people and likely through their families and any shared work spaces as well. None of the people who train actively have been sick for more than two weeks, but I can't speak for their spouses, family elders, or co workers.


I'm of the professional opinion that it's stupid and we should stay open with the precautions we had in June-August, not the relaxed version that is resulting in increased transference.

yeah, we're all sheep. this is a vast conspiracy of fear mongering that involves literally every government of the world.

nobody is dying from this, which is why it's killed enough people in 12 months to become the 3rd most common cause of death.

"politically appointed doctors", lol.
 
So, I start training in two weeks with unvaccinated people. I can still transmit COVID to people on or off the mat. I’m not sure how I feel about that. I’m thinking of widening my training pod, but not training with whoever.
That is true, but on the other hand, those unvaccinated people are training with lots of other unvaccinated people (presumably), which greatly increases their risk. One could argue that every roll with you is one less with an unvaccinated human petri dish

I get you on the transmission thing though, I've held off on returning until my wife is fully vaccinated. Planning on some serious lazy old man style rolling on my return
 
My cooperating school district put student teachers in the last vaccine tier then canceled two clinics :(

Really missing training, but dad's got leukemia and I'm taking care of him so I don't want to risk it until I'm vaccinated.

How did you feel after the second shot? I've heard it's rough.

Also, glad you're back in the states! Hope the world tour didn't get cut too short .

Sorry about your father, my mom died of leukemia a short while ago, I too took care of her.

So sorry to hear. I lost mine to ovarian cancer when I was 8. Dad needed his hip replaced in Jan and they shattered his femur during the surgery. Just got out of rehab yesterday. Good news is his counts are down. Better news is Iowa is a medicinal state, he's really happy to get back to his "cannabalist relief"

Worst pain is hurting the people someone loves. It’s like when your dog feels sick or breaks a paw or something, you wish it was you.

If your bjj school was opened during the pandemic I would expect all the regulars to have gone through covid already. I didn't notice when I had it but found out during the antibody test.
 
Congrats. Taking the experimental genetic therapy shot just destroyed your natural immune system.

Any so-called martial artist that takes this untested death jab is not a martial artist. You failed to detect something that will kill you.

For a virus that has a 99.7% survival rate, why would you take something that has NO long term testing? I need no other argument than that. But, let's go on ...

The specific antibodies created by the DNA altering shot will dominate your natural immunity and you will be vulnerable to any variant in the future. In animal studies, the ferrets and cats that were inoculated all died when they encountered similar SARS viruses in the wild. Their natural immunity was destroyed. Research Antibody Dependent Enhancement. If you don't know what this means, and you took the shot already, you are a fool.

By the way, these death shots have 18 fragments of HIV-1 in them for gain of function purposes.

The person (Bill Gates) promoting this crime against humanity has publicly stated he wants to reduce the population of the world by 1.5B people.

The fact that they are injecting this poison into people DURING a pandemic, will guarantee that the virus mutates to more powerful versions because people taking these death jabs have an incomplete defense against the virus for several weeks. Research Immune Escape.

Congrats again. You spent hours researching half guard escapes on youtube. But, you took a shot that changed your body forever without ANY research.

You will be dead within 2 years.

Brilliant.

My favorite part is how you used terms like "gain of function" as if you understand them. Oh yeah... Vaccines have "gain of function" purposes. Brilliant.
