+UPDATE+
Uptake of vaccine by Premier League players greater than media reports.
It also now looks that many players waited till end of last year's football season to vaccinate.
It now turns out 81% of players have had at least one jab & 70% of players now double vaccinated.

At the end of September there were only seven clubs in the Premier League where more than 50% of players were fully vaccinated.
The huge rapid leap in double vaccination looks to have been a large clump of PL players not wanting to "risk" vaccination during season.

I pass no judgement on whether there's a case to be made for young sportsmen to "delay" vaccinations to a sporting "off season"...
...what I will say is this:
Media reports of PL players being "anti-vaxxers" seems widely over-blown or even...simply a lie.

...in other words Premier League players have been vaccinated at....roughly the same level as the population in their respective age group.
The whole media meme on "anti-vaxxer footballers" was a lie.
