LEBRON JAMES IS VACCINATED, BUT ISN’T TRYING TO INFLUENCE OTHERS

Los Angeles Lakers superstar Lebron James said that he has received a COVID-19 vaccine shot despite his initial skepticism, Yahoo! Sports reported. 

During his team’s media day on Tuesday, James said he was wary at first about getting the vaccine but through his own research decided it was the right thing to do for him and his family.

“I know that I was skeptical about it all, but after doing my research, I felt it was best suited for not only me, but my friends. James said. “That’s why I decided to do it.”

Asked about potentially being a public advocate for COVID vaccines, James said that is not his job, according to Yahoo! Sports.

“I know what I did for me and my family. I know what some of my friends did for their families,” James said. “But as far as speaking for everybody and their individualities, and things they want to do, that’s not my job.”
