Bradley Beal reveals he hasn’t received the coronavirus vaccine

Washington Wizards star Bradley Beal revealed Monday afternoon he has not received the COVID-19 vaccine.

On a media zoom call, the 28-year old cited “personal reasons” as to why he opted not to get the vaccine despite contracting it in July and missing out on the chance to compete for USA Basketball at the Olympics this summer.

Beal, who shared his parents and older brothers are vaccinated, said he doesn’t feel any pressure to get the vaccine.

“I don’t think you can pressure anybody to make a decision about their body or what they put into their body,” he told reporters.
