I’d Rather Miss The Olympics Than Have Covid-19 Vaccine – Yohan Blake Says

Jamaican sprinter, Yohan Blake has said that he would rather miss the Tokyo Olympics than receive the Covid-19 vaccine.

This coming a month after the International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced that receiving a vaccine would not be compulsory for athletes, but encouraged competitors to be vaccinated once arriving in Japan “to contribute to the safe environment of the Games.

Also out of respect for the Japanese people, who should be confident that everything is being done to protect not only the participants, but also the Japanese people too, the IOC said.

Speaking over the weekend, the former 100m world champion, Yohan Blake said he would rather miss the Tokyo Olympics than receive the Covid-19 vaccine.

He was quoted by Jamaican newspaper The Gleaner as saying:

My mind is still strong, I don’t want any vaccine, I’d rather miss the Olympics than take the vaccine, I am not taking it.

I don’t really want to get into it now, but I have my reasons.

Follow your mind, don’t follow the crowd. At the same time, be respectful to each and every one. Don’t let no one take away your choice.
