All SE PA is higher transmission than Indiana right now - and that's per Capita. The greater population doesn't matter much. Will it get worse here in Fall ? Maybe, but since the death and severe rates of disease have plummeted even among the unvaccinated, and many many people have already been infected without knowing or reporting it, it might not matter much. We'll see. I'm pretty sure the most vulnerable people here have been vaccinated. Hopefully the vax won't wear off too much by November.

I read in a Trib Article that the reason for the booster is because the vaccine wanes in its ability to halt transmission of the virus. It still has the ability to protect the vaccinated from severe illness or death. I think the statement that "very, very high increase in antibodies with this third dose" is overstated but I don't doubt that it will increase antibodies beyond what's swimming around in us now. I'll get mine when my turn comes around sometime in November. People who forgo the shot and boohoo when the get seriously sick are like those people who build luxury houses near or in disaster prone zones and then boohoo when the disaster finally hits. What did the expect? Obviously not IUP grads.U.S. health officials Wednesday announced plans to offer covid-19 booster vaccines to all Americans. Health officials suggested a third dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine be given to people eight months after the second dose to help increase protection. Boosters could be available by the week of Sept. 20.

Gigantic loss for IUP. Obviously, it was a matter of time until he left. He has a very bright future in the business. The timing is horrendous ... but, that's the coaching world.
He's an incredible recruiter and landed some of IUP's current top players.

You know IUPbigINDIANS , while posting on here about the DL, I said to myself, "I bet Coach Leonard leaves after the season". But I see he left earlier. I wonder what school in Florida he'll be coaching. But good luck to him. But according to the roster release article ( https://iupathletics.com/news/2021/8...ing-staff.aspx ) he was going to coach the LBs. So I wonder who will take over that position?
Leonard had a very decorated career at WVU. He was also a direct link to McKeesport for IUP. Big loss.
But, that's coaching. Don't get too attached. Here today and gone tomorrow.

Very informative article. However Anthony Leonard accepted a position at D1 Hofstra? That's not in Florida and I can't find anything online about Hofstra reinstating their football program. Is that accurate?
