Gov. Lamont was joined by coaches at a New Haven vaccination site Monday to urge students to get vaccinated before returning this fall.
Coaches said if students aren’t vaccinated, they could be excluded from the field this fall. We deal with a lot of kids. They can take [COVID-19] home to their grandparents, their parents, uncles, aunts, and family members,” said Hillhouse High School football coach Reggie Lytle.
It s a worry that Gov. Lamont agrees with.
“If a coach says, I want everybody vaccinated. If the superintendent says, I want everybody vaccinated. If the owner of the restaurant says, I want to make sure that, before you come in here without a mask, I can see you ve been vaccinated,’ we leave that up to the good discretion of those folks,” Lamont said.
