Bubba Wallace Addresses COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy As 23XI Racing Team Get Dose

Bubba Wallace continues to step up as a leader on and off the racetrack, this time tackling COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy.

The NASCAR driver and roughly 50 of his 23XI Racing teammates, as well as their immediate family members, received their first doses of the vaccine earlier on Tuesday at their shop.

Originally, the crew was scheduled to get the single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine; however, the U.S. FDA recommended the immediate halt of using the company's vaccine after it was discovered that six women developed a rare blood clot disorder within two weeks of receiving the shot.
