NBA memo forbids skipping line for virus vaccine
NBA memo warns teams about obtaining, administering COVID-19 vaccine early
As reported by ESPN, The NBA delivered a warning to teams on Thursday that franchises are forbidden from pursuing and administering newly released coronavirus vaccines on a teamwide basis ahead of public health guidelines for prioritization, according to a memo obtained by ESPN.
In informing teams that medical experts advising the NBA are in agreement with the FDA that the new Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for the coronavirus are “safe and effective,” the NBA told teams the league will work to vaccinate its players and staffs “consistent with the timing and prioritization set by applicable public health guidelines,” the memo said.
