Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Destroyed LeBron James Over His Covid-19 Spiderman Meme Post

NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has never been one to mince his words – not during his active playing career, and certainly not after. 

Kareem is outspoken on many topics and doesn’t shy away when it comes to voicing his opinion.

Before the season started Abdul-Jabbar voiced his opinion on the vaccination status of certain players, while encouraging as many people as possible to get their shots, also urging the NBA to insist that all players and staff are vaccinated, or else, removed from the team. He also went at LeBron James for supporting Andrew Wiggins, who at that time didn’t want to get the vaccine.

The Lakers legend now went at LeBron James again, and absolutely destroyed him over his Covid-19, Spiderman meme post.

“The meme’s implication is that LeBron doesn’t understand the difference among these three illnesses, even after all the information that’s been presented in the press. Well, since he asked, let me help him out by explaining the difference—and how knowing that difference might save lives, especially in the Black community,

As is evident by some of the comments that cheer LeBron’s post, he’s given support to those not getting vaccinated, which makes the situation for all of worse by postponing our health and economic recovery. The CDC reports that those who are unvaccinated are 9 times more likely to be admitted to the hospital and 14 times more likely to die from COVID than those vaccinated. The number rises to 20 time more likely when compared to someone who’s gotten a booster shot. By posting the uninformed meme, LeBron has encouraged vaccine hesitancy which puts lives and livelihoods at risk.”
