Vaccination will be required to attend Bills games this season, per Polancarz. [Edit: "No official vaccination policy yet" per Bills ticket office.]

Not sure how to keep this from getting political/controversial. But its pretty big Bills related news. Hopefully we can all behave

that is AWESOME news.  It sucks for the people that won’t get vaccinated (I empathize with many of the concerns they’ve voiced), but we have to move forward.

Before you shout “muh freedoms!!!”, it’s private property.

 

Also, IN.

Awesome news.  I hope they do this for all events throughout the country.

What's the big deal?...Most Bill's fans are usually "shot" when they're in the parking lot

Seems ridiculous to be making this decision in April? Why not want and see how things are looking in two months when a majority of the country is vaccinated? We have no idea. 

 

 

Regarding making the decision now, they can still revisit at some point later on but this is probably done after consulting with the governor's office.

Hells yes

It wouldn't surprise me if the NFL has a vaccine policy for the players too.

Welp, go head and laminate those vaccination cards. May need it for more than just attending a game. Never know

Saw something on not laminating them because it can smudge the ink.

I asked about it when I was getting my second shot and they said not to as well.

Because they need something push more people to get vaccinated, and this is good bait. (and I mean all that in a very positive way)

 

The issue we're about to face is that the US is not even at 25% vaccinated (barely 1/3 of where we need to end up), and we are already seeing DEMAND for the vaccine dwindling.

 

Herd Immunity, and a safe, full re-opening, kicks in around 70%. If we top out at 30-35%, we're going to have some major problems.

Make a copy and laminate it.  Keep the original for future booster shots if necessary.

Surprised they aren't going the Excelsior Pass route that allows for a recent negative test also.

Good. As it should be. You're free to not get the vaccine, but you're also free to deal with the consequences

[teef]

ok.  i'm in.  i wonder if they're still going to make people report a few days before to take a test.  that's the trouble for me...i just can't take that day to go back and forth for a test.  i mean i can, but i don't want to lose work for that.

No.  Hell no.

I also hope they don't require a recent vaccination.  My vaccination through the Pfizer clinical trial will be over a year old when the season starts.
