MMDA Chairman Benhur Abalos said basketball players are classified as “economic frontliners”, thus they are included in the A4 category of the country’s vaccination priority list. “The PBA is one of the industries in the country struggling to cope with COVID-19. About 1,200 workers in the industry have been affected by the pandemic,” Abalos said, adding that the league is an integral part of Filipino culture. The PBA, the first professional basketball league in Asia, has delayed the start of its 46th season as a result of the public health emergency.
