But not Michael Andrew. He said he didn’t want it to interfere with his training, figuring it might cause him to miss a few days of practice. You know, side effects and all.
The vaccine probably affected the training of Olympic gold medalists Ledecky and Manuel too, but they went ahead and got the shots, gladly doing their part to not only keep themselves safe, but also those around them, including their future Olympic swimming teammates.
But Andrew? The 22-year-old who said he contracted COVID months ago decided he didn’t need to do any of that. Speaking on the YouTube swimming series “Inside with Brett Hawke” in January, Andrew explained his decision this way:
“So my thought pattern is kind of like, if I’ve already got it, there’s not as much health risk for me.

unfair to teammates , wear a mask to protect your family and friends ,BLAH BLAH BLAH it’s never them it’s always YOU
First...mask shaming. Now vaxx shaming.
When do the “struggle sessions” begin?
Just swim and shut up.
I’m starting to think there’s something else in that vaccine they really want us to have. NOT JUST the vaccine as it is explained to be. Curious
If they do, it will be a "surprise breakthrough".
He contracted the virus months ago. Why get the shot? I clicked the link, read the entire article. They never explain why he needs the shot if he’s already had the disease...

Group think by leftists. They must be considered enemies.
““So my thought pattern is kind of like, if I’ve already got it, there’s not as much health risk for me.”
He’s right.
Alternative title: I really hate Michael Andrew!
“When do the “struggle sessions” begin”
They’ve begun.
So if a young healthy person who prefers not to take a drug only approved for emergency use is selfish? Hmmm. Crazy days!
Why do they keep insisting it “keeps others safe”? It does not keep anyone from getting it or spreading by their own admission!
Astonishing Spike in Post-Vaccine Deaths Gets No Media Coverage as Over 2,000 Reported THIS WEEK Alone
Europe says nobody under 30 should get the vaccine.
If his teammates are vaccinated what the hell difference does it make his teammates are protected RIGHT???
Everyone in my family except the young-uns has gotten the jab and yes, there have been a couple of bad reactions that they felt for a few days.
Can’t let people with a mind of their own escape sterilization
That's the point I've been making for months now.
If the vaccines are so darn good, what do those taking them have to worry about? What do they care if others choose not to get it. They are SAFE! Right?
Same with the mask nonsense. If people want to wear masks because they feel they make them safe, they can do so to their heart's content. What do they care if the rest of us choose not to wear them? We are the ones assuming all the risk, right?
