Jonathan Isaac of the Orlando Magic said he stopped being “forced” to get vaccinated.

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac has announced he is rejecting pressure to vaccinate against the coronavirus.

While attending the ReAwaken America Tour in Myrtle Beach, Isaac denounced the ongoing attacks on him by vaccine advocates.

“Watching feels obligatory. There seems to be a lot of pressure to do that,” Isaac said, according to EuroHoops. “I don’t see the point of putting anything into my body that won’t prevent me from catching or transmitting the virus. That’s why I decided to be the only player on my team that wasn’t vaccinated.”

This isn’t the first time Isaac has addressed the issue of vaccination persistence. In September, Isaac said he was “humiliated” for not getting the injection.

He also said that he was infected with the virus early and that he thought his natural immunity was strong.

I’ve had COVID in the past, so our understanding of antibodies, innate immunity, has changed dramatically since the start of the pandemic and is still evolving. I understand that if you develop COVID and you have fewer symptoms than the infection, a vaccine can help. But this is not my fear as I have had COVID in the past and have antibodies to my current age group and fitness level. Getting the vaccine—as I said, will reduce my chances of having a serious reaction—but it opens up the rare opportunity for me to have a bad reaction to the vaccine itself. This does not mean that the unvaccinated are infected or the vaccinated are not infected. You can still get COVID with or without the vaccine. I’ll honestly say it doesn’t make anyone comfortable with what that person is saying, being crazy about not being able to say without embarrassment or madness that all of this should be everyone’s fair choice. Yes, I can now say two reasons why I can say that I am skeptical. But at the end of the day, I don’t feel anything or there’s a reason someone would come out and say this or that. It should be their decision, and loving your neighbor isn’t just about loving those who agree with you, look like you, or act like you, it’s about loving those who disagree.

It wasn’t just a matter of chance vaccinations that Isaac on the left got angry.

When the NBA played the Orlando Bubble in the 2020 season, he was the only NBA player to stand up for the national anthem while all the other players, coaches and staff kneel in protest of the nation. .
