West Brom striker Callum Robinson speaks out about decision not to be vaccinated against Covid-19
West Bromwich Albion's Callum Robinson has admitted he has chosen not to be vaccinated against Covid-19 despite contracting the virus twice already.
The 26-year-old striker, who had already missed games due to covid, first tested positive in November last year and then again in August.
When asked if he had been vaccinated, he replied: "I haven’t been vaccinated, no. That’s my choice at this moment in time."
"It’s obviously annoying that I’ve caught it twice but I haven’t been vaccinated. Further down the line I could change my mind and want to do it, but at this moment in time I haven’t been vaccinated, no."
He added: "I just haven’t, I just haven’t done it. I think it’s your personal choice and my choice at this moment in time, I haven’t been vaccinated.
"I know, as you said, there are managers and people that will want you to do it, which is right in their way, the way they think, but everyone has their choice on what they want to do."
"I wouldn’t force people to do it, it’s your choice and your body."
Robinson, who declined to discuss his reasons, continues to be tested regularly along with his team-mates.
