Auburn head coach Bryan Harsin is declining to disclose whether or not he has received or plans to receive the COVID vaccine. Last week, the university mandated that all employees by fully vaccinated against COVID by December 8th. According to the new policy, there could be limited circumstances where an employee is legally entitled to a medical or religious accommodation from being required to take the vaccine. Harsin has refused to discuss his vaccination status multiple times going back to SEC media day in July, saying it is a deeply personal decision for everyone.
