Yohan Blake, however, will likely still compete as the International Olympic Committee says getting the vaccine is “encouraged” but not compulsory for athletes.
Olympic champion sprinter Yohan Blake of Jamaica says he would rather miss the Tokyo Games than get the COVID-19 vaccine, although getting vaccinated will not be required of the athletes competing there in July.
My mind still stays strong, I dont want any vaccine, Id rather miss the Olympics than take the vaccine, I am not taking it, he was quoted as saying in Jamaican newspaper The Gleaner.
