Dak Prescott Latest Athlete To Decline Giving Out His Vaccine Status

Some athletes are being very coy about their vaccine status, with some deciding to keep the info to themselves. Dallas Cowboys Quarterback Dak Prescott is the latest athlete to decline to reveal whether or not he was received a vaccine for COVID-19. The Dallas Cowboys quarterback said that he won’t tell teammates to get the vaccine, and it’s up to each individual to decide for themselves.

ā€œFor me I think itā€™s important just for everybody to educate themselves on the reason of why to get vaccinated and why it can either help in their cause or maybe help the world,ā€ Prescott said in an interview with Newy Scruggs of NBC DFW.

ā€œBut itā€™s not necessarily something Iā€™d like to share or something Iā€™d like to promote or say ā€˜hey, you should, you shouldnā€™t,ā€™ā€ Prescott said. ā€œBecause when youā€™re putting in a vaccination obviously youā€™re putting something thatā€™s foreign that obviously the experts put together and made the decision that thatā€™s the best way to go about it, but itā€™s all up to your belief and Iā€™m not the one to try to move people and tell them, ā€˜hey, you need to do this, you need to do thatā€™ because we all react individual to everything.ā€

Social Media reacted to his decision:

Not sure why it’s so hard to tell people you got the vaccine.

Not sure what their thinking is…
