Auburn Tigers football coach Bryan Harsin 'not anti-vaccine' after testing positive for COVID-19

Auburn first-year coach Bryan Harsin, who tested positive for COVID-19 last week and remains in isolation, told reporters on Wednesday that he's not against people getting vaccinated.

"Let me be clear," he said, "I am not anti-vaccine and any narrative along those lines is misinformed."

Harsin, however, has declined to say whether or not he's personally been vaccinated.

He said on Wednesday that he's gone to great lengths to provide players and coaches with information on the virus and vaccines, bringing in a number of experts to talk to the team. But he didn't say that he's actively encouraged players to take the vaccine.
