We don't know. But they say he feels better and it is precaution. The team would be very scared probably if he didn't get the Vax.

Vax doesn’t prevent infection, it’s primary endpoint was hospitalization rate.

This isn’t true.

That's my point. If he wasn't vaxed and caught Covid they probably would be freaking out. And it's been shown that the Vax does a pretty good job preventing the infection and preventing the spread. This isn't 100 percent safe proof, but I think it is about 70 percent.

I know lebron isn't getting vaccinated. From what I've heard, there's a lot of skepticism among athletes.

Did he tell you this? His position would be that he wasn't going to publicly say what he was doing.

Uh yeah, when asked if he would get the covid vaccine, LeBron said his decision on whether he and his family will get vaccinated is a "private thing". It really isn't hard to connect the dots here. You don't say something like that unless you AREN'T getting vaccinated.

 

Here's an article about how NBA players are hesitant to promote the vaccine.

You said that you "know" he's not getting vaccinated. You're assuming it.

For certain, it's very good at preventing fatalities.

Just to add on to what bmags said, the mRNA vaccines are something like 90% effective at preventing infections, and even better at preventing severe illness, hospitalization, and deaths. So yes, they do (not 100% but close) prevent people from getting infected in the first place.

Was it around April 7 that the team got shot #1?

Looks like it was April 8 and they got the J&J shot which takes something like 30-45 days to reach full efficacy

I read that there is some scepticism in black communities because us pharmaceutical industry didn't always treat black people very well in the past. I'm not from the US though so I don't know the exact background. 

Big goverment knows best!! Right.....

The Tuskegee Syphilis Study is the most famous example, but yes.

Still indiscernible from the parody account

Just to be clear ...

"... was an ethically abusive study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the United States Public Health Service (PHS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)".
