NBA denies Andrew Wiggins’ request not to get vaccinated for religious reasons

The NBA has denied Andrew Wiggins’s request not to get vaccinated for religious reasons according to Rogers Sportsnet on Friday. Wiggins a small forward from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, who plays for the Golden State Warriors, made the request after that was one reason from the San Francisco Department of Health’s vaccination requirements for being exempted. ‘

However, the religious exemption does not apply to those participating in large indoor events, like Wiggins. Under the NBA ruling, Wiggins cannot play NBA games in his hometown of San Francisco until he is vaccinated.

The NBA needs to be highly praised for insisting that all Warriors players follow the local rules of San Francisco. This particular NBA case enhances the debate of whether or not citizens from across the world should be allowed not to get vaccinated for religious reasons. It also questions the integrity of religions that encourage people not to be vaccinated when health authorities and governments from across the world are insisting everyone be vaccinated, so coronavirus does not spread.

All NBA players must follow the local regulation guidelines. San Francisco and New York have stricter guidelines than most American cities with NBA teams. The Nets have had challenges with their players being vaccinated. 

Those NBA players who are not vaccinated must be told regularly that there have been 4,764,608 deaths due to coronavirus so far, and by not getting vaccinated, they are seriously putting the health and safety of others at risk. These players must also know that there are still 9,864,064 active cases of coronavirus in the United States. Where communication departments on a global scale need to do a better job is reporting the risk of coronavirus to those who have been double vaccinated.
