NBA: Bradley Beal not getting vaccinated, cites ‘personal reasons’

Washington Wizards three-time All-Star Bradley Beal on Monday cited "personal reasons" for not getting vaccinated against COVID-19, adding he hopes that his previous bout with the virus will protect him.Beal contracted COVID-19 over the summer, preventing him from playing in the Tokyo Olympics. Beal declined to say why he would not get vaccinated.

"I don't think you can pressure anybody into making a decision about their body or what they put into their body," Beal said. "You kind of let people come into their own about it. ... I talk it over with my family and we make a group decision that we feel is best for us, just like the rest of the world."

"Some people have bad reactions to the vaccine, nobody wants to talk about that. What happens if one of our players gets the vaccine and they can't play after that? Or they have complications after that? Because there are cases like that."
