England's deputy chief medical officer Jonathan Van-Tam has reportedly urged all Premier League players to 'get vaccinated' as soon as possible after warning them that they 'can't outrun' the virus.
A vitual meeting on August 2 was held by the Premier League with all 20 teams' captains in a bid to dispel any myths around the Covid jab and get vaccinated before the start of the new campaign.
According to The Telegraph, Van-Tam and the Premier League medical officer Mark Gillett looked to reassure the players over the vaccine in the hope the information would reach their team-mates.
