Man, that sucks for the Packers (had to get in. I never seem to beat the lock).

The vaccine renders one immunized.

He didn't take the vaccine.

He was not immunized.

He lied.

So I got the vaccination back in April. This October 3rd, I tested positive for Covid and went through "mediocre" symptoms. I don't understand why some keep saying the vaccinations make you "immune?" (immunized) Anyone who is vaccinated can still contract, and spread Covid. I'm 100% proof of that.

Sounds like he was being dishonest and breaking protocol to me. The attempts to go technically he's not lying doesn't pass the sniff test to me.

If someone asks me if I'm 6'3 and I say "Yes, I'm tall" that would be taken by any reasonable person to assume I'm 6'3

If someone measured me and I was 6 foot, then they would have every right to say I was being dishonest. Just because I didn't say "Yes, I am 6'3" does not mean I wasn't being misleading by confirming and then saying I was tall.

It's being misleading, and intentionally so.

In terms of following protocol, we know that's not the case because he didn't wear a mask on the sideline like other unvaccinated Packers players did, and he didn't wear a mask when conducting media interviews. He's also been shown on photos getting on the team plane without a mask, which is a violation of protocols. In fact I believe he's supposed to fly separately all together.

Any of the other stuff in terms of the league not knowing or whatever, following protocols otherwise I don't really know, but it sounds like he was intentionally misleading and violating protocols on the sidelines. Also sounds like the NFL knew he status and basically did fuck all, which I assume they were hoping they could just ignore it until the truth came out, typical NFL behaviour.

He technically doesn't have to say anything but like I said to Avenger he was asked if he was vaccinated and he did not to my knowledge say yes. He said he was immunized which he obviously wasn't since he caught covid. He tried to play a word game and it's coming back to bite him when he got covid. He again to my knowledge never lied and said he was vaccinated.
I don’t think I ever said he lied because I know people will get into semantics over this. I said he was deceptive.

I'm almost 99% sure you have to wear a mask at press conferences if not vaxxed, which he never did. He wasn't following protocol.

Not sure why that's relevant.

If the question was "were you immunized" and he said "I had the vaccine, but that does not render one fully immune to the virus," your comment would be on point.

That's not what happened.

Incorrect! The covid vax does not make you immune it lessens the symptoms in theory if you get covid. The bad reporter failed to follow up with something like "So you're not vaccinated?" You're mad at him for the wrong thing, he jousted with words with the reporter.
Bull shit.

Question: "Were you vaccinated."
Answer: 'Yeah, I was immunized."

His belief as to the efficacy of the vaccine has absolutely nothing to do with the veracity, or lack thereof, his answer. Even if he believes the vaccine is entirely ineffective, he lied.

He was not vaccinated.
He was not "immunized."
He lied.

Just to clarify as it keeps getting missed, The reporter asked, "Are you vaccinated?" The reporter did NOT ask, "are you vaccinated against Covid". Rogers did not lie because the question was so bad it belongs in a college Finals booklet.

Most kids were vaccinated at some point in their lives so "Have you been vaccinated?" can be answered, "Yeah". The question was stupid, not the answer. If it makes you mad about him using word play then watching the news or listening to politics must drive you insane.... :) it does to me

Tagging on to that he goes on to say that “There’s guys on the team that haven’t been vaccinated. I think it’s a personal decision, I’m not going to judge those guys.”

Call it a lie, call it wordsmithing - his intent was to mislead. If you don’t see that, its because you are trying not to.

The context of the conversation was the COVID vaccine so, no... that's not an excuse for his lie.

It wasn't extremely relevant I know. I'm just trying to educate anyone who thinks getting the Covid vaccination makes you "immune" to Covid 19. It doesn't. Not at all. It does seem to help lesson the symptom severity which is good. My point was just a side point because I saw some speaking like the vaccine makes you immune. It did not for me. I got it. And my wife got it too, and she ALSO was fully vaccinated.
