New York City mayor Eric Adams addressed NBA commissioner Adam Silver’s comments on NYC’s vaccine mandate applying to only home teams.
Adams, who was recently elected as NYC’s mayor, believes the rule is “unfair,” but he is very leery about changing what has been put in place.
“I think the rule is unfair. I believe that we are saying to out-of-town athletes that they can come in and not be vaccinated,” Adams said. “Yet, New York athletes have to be vaccinated.”
“I’m not sure if a Boston fan created this rule, I don’t know but I am really really leery about sending the wrong message.
