Dwight Howard, again not wearing a mask in Orlando bubble, said he doesn't believe in vaccinations

frequent decision to not wear a mask inside the NBA’s bubble at Walt Disney World amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Los Angeles Lakers center often posts to social media or goes live without one on, and has questioned why players were even made to wear them in the first place.

After going live on Instagram while not wearing a mask despite being around others, Howard was asked if he believed in vaccinations.

“No, I don’t,” he replied. “That’s my personal opinion, but no, I don’t.”
