The Athletic article

Sorry for the paid site link but the story is rather short and doesn't provide many specifics.


quote:

The NBA denied Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins' request for a religious exemption from the COVID-19 vaccine, the league announced Friday, meaning he will not be allowed to play in Golden State's home games without vaccination.

The San Francisco Department of Health requires vaccination for all people 12 years and older in order to attend large indoor events. Wiggins had applied for a religious exemption from the rule.

Religious exemption. What a pussy move. If you use that, you should fully embrace and live as “god” made you. Naked. No medicine. No Heathcare. Just pray the sick away.

If you are going to try and claim a religious exemption for a vaccine maybe don't be so vocal about how you'll take it you are forced to by your job. Kind of let's everyone know your religion claim is bullshite.

What if someone has already had covid?

Why are they forced to get the vaccine instead of just proving they still have antibodies?

I'm assuming it's b/c getting the vaccine still makes you less likely to spread COVID due to decreased viral shed which is a major part of why people should get vaccines in the first place.

Guess Wiggins didn't convert to Catholicism in time.

I could have sworn they’ve figured out viral load doesn’t change with vaccines…?

Honestly I might have dreamt that.

Wiggins is Canadian, so another racist anti-Trudeau voter refusing the vaccine.

Front line doctors in a lot of hospitals systems that have had it are not given this exemption either

The NBA: Supporting Wokeism but Peasants aren't allowed to have Religious Beliefs

Sounds like communism

I'm not 100% on that but I kind of stopped paying attention b/c I wasn't scared to get the shot. People being scared of getting it is silly.
