The first group of Toronto FC personnel has received its first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine with more to follow.
General manager Ali Curtis, currently in Mexico for the MLS team’s Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League game against Club Leon on Wednesday, said he was among six to eight staff members vaccinated Saturday in Florida.
Non-travelling players and staff were due to get vaccinated Tuesday in Orlando, where TFC has set up shop for the 2021 season due to pandemic-related border restrictions.
Curtis said he expected the rest of the travelling party would be vaccinated Friday upon their return to Florida.
