Tweets of note: NHL taking proactive approach to vaccination requirements, per Friedman

Good stuff to hear from the NHL, per Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman:

NHL sent a memo updating vaccination requirements to its teams: “Any person whose job, role, position or access entails or entitles them to have personal interactions (within 12 feet) with Club Hockey Operations personnel (including Players) are required to be Fully Vaccinated.”— Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC) August 13, 2021

There are some limited exceptions — such as valet parking attendants. NHL/NHLPA protocols for players are not yet completed. (2/2)— Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC) August 13, 2021

Now it’s time for the NHLPA to mandate vaccines for its players, which is a harder sell.
