NBA star Bradley Beal clarified his stance on the COVID-19 vaccine after this video from yesterday started going viral where he asked some very pointed questions to reporters challenging why he needed to get since 1. he has antibodies from a previous infection and 2. vaccinated individuals can still get and transmit Covid:

But today he made it clear that he’s “still considering getting the vaccine” and “not sitting up here advocating that you shouldn’t get the vaccine”:
Bradley Beal is asked again about how he came to the personal decision not to get the COVID vaccine: "I’m still considering getting the vaccine, so one thing I want to make clear is that I’m not sitting up here advocating that you shouldn’t get the vaccine.”

He’s also reportedly still in the 60-day window of the infection that kept him out of the Olympics:
Beal said it was recommended he should not yet get the vaccine, because he is still within the 60-day window of having COVID.
“I’m not sitting here saying I won’t get it."
