You shouldn’t have to take it if you don’t want to

At this point idk what the players want anymore…they was just complaining about playing an extra game in the ASG due to covid now they dont wanna talk/promote vaccinations which possibly could help the situation

No vaccine and you can’t play. No vaccine and you can’t get on an airplane. You can’t open your businesses unless you comply with mask mandates. You can’t enter said business as a customer without complying with mask mandates. Stay 666 feet apart. OBEY AND ACCEPT THE MARK OF THE BEAST.

Why are there so many dislikes?

Because their take is absolutely terrible. No one should take the vaccine if they don’t want to. Saying that players shouldn’t play if they don’t take the vaccine is forcing them to take it

Lol what no! you can definitely listen to independent media that is not main stream and telling the truth. But there is definitely misinformation out there. Some even on mainstream media

So even this subject is race related? ESPN is worse than CNN and to that, Max Kellerman has the advantage that he is heard being on widely spread TV, hence he may say such BS like: “anti-vaccine people are nonsense”, whereas he also claims players not wanting to be vaccinated shouldn’t play! Wow, that is dictatorship and a blackmail at once! Besides this is all an experiment on lively people which results are seen in Europe currently – where a lot of older people die or have severe side effects right after taking this poison. In % this vaccine kills more people than the virus itself!!! TVs agenda is being paid by its owners and these owners have their dirty hands in other places…. DON’T TAKE IT and never trust the media!

Nurse over here talking you should 100% take it. We have spent so much resource time money efforts into this vaccine with so many casualties along the way. Please educate yourself and be safe

It’s going to be funny seeing all these people in the comments getting denied entry to different places if they refuse to take the vaccine. It’s only a matter of time you losers that everywhere is going to require the vaccine shot. Get ready lmao

Listen anyone who has concerns about the vaccines should talk to a trusted medical professional and ask as many questions as possible then make a decision on taking a vaccine once you have all the facts.

Not a single doctor will ever say “it’s probably not safe”. Take a look at the vaccine ingredients, have fun doing research and we’ll be here after your head is done spinning. You either trust it blindly or you dont. Its not possible to educate yourself on something that hasnt been tested for years. We are all lab rats on this one. Best of luck to both sides.

I’m black, I’m in the nursing field, I took both vaccines, no reaction to neither. I did it because I watched a lot of residents that I cared very deeply about get sick and couple of them did die. I took it because I don’t want to be a statistic. Our numbers are down significantly after our pts were vaccined. It’s a choice. Take it or don’t it’s that simple. But until we try something, this Virus will never go away. Our way of norm will NEVER be the same again ever!

No one has died from the vaccine. This is fake news

I think the nba should give extra pay to players, coaching staff, etc to take the shot so then they can sell out arenas again to full capacity

I’m taking it. Vaccines are supposed to prevent us from getting diseases/covid, NOT kill you. Why twist its purpose? A car’s purpose is to take you from point a to point b but we all know there are risks of accidents and yet we still drive everyday anyway. I dont see how vaccine is any different.

My thing is can they tell you what’s in it ? What’s in it ? Why are they selling it to us to convince us so hard ?
Johnny Adames
February 18, 2021 at 10:20 pm
People like you are set in your ways. If they told you what was in it, you 1) wouldn’t know what the chemicals in it were, 2)wouldn’t believe that’s what was in it.

You’re not putting a dead disease in your body. Max should read up before stating something like that.
