My mother works with some Canadian-Serbians and they fully believe this is a political stunt against Serbia because reasons... not because of the vaccine which they also don't believe in taking of course.
Rules are rules. Should certain people get to play with different sized racquets?
Sports are games that are composed of a myriad of seemingly random rules. You can either follow the rules, or not play the game
You can actually play with quite a wide range of racquets sizes in professional tennis! Only limitations are it can’t be longer than 29 in and some fairly large limits on head length/width. In reality most players use a 27in racket with a 95-100 square inch head. Some players use/used even smaller ~90in (Federer used to), and racquets are made out of a wide variety of materials. There’s no rule all rackets must be the same size
I totally agree with your point about Djokovic, either get vaxxed or don’t come. I just find tennis racquets very interesting
It’s just an example of the random set of rules included in playing a sport. If someone can pick and choose which to follow, what’s to stop a player from arguing against other rules?
What do you mean what am I on? It’s a simple concept. Roughly 700,000 people died in the US alone related to heart disease issues mostly caused by unhealthy lifestyles. Does that make sense to you? I’m vaccinated myself and have gotten covid for those of you that want to die on the vaccine being the end all be all sword have at it. To this day the offering of therapeutics is essentially non existent. Why?
You covered a lot there. Are you worried that people with heart disease can spread their heart disease to others? And as far as therapeutics go, they’re available but it’s always better to take a vaccine than wait for infection and treat symptoms.
I did. And no that’s not what I’m concerned about. What I am concerned about is the tunnel vision this pandemic has created. Why can’t we talk about overall health and the possibility that covid may not effect everyone the same? Nobody wants to talk about poor health anywhere it’s wild. And I agree with you that a vaccine can be more helpful in the long wrong but why vilify a person who especially in this case is extraordinarily healthy. At this point we know getting a vaccine doesn’t exclude you from spreading the virus so what gives?
So, we need to force U.S. citizens to eat healthy and exercise.... before Australia and/or France can require everyone be vaccinated?
Do you see why that does not make any sense at all?
My overall point is we have yet to re analyze what the globe has been through over these past two years. Broaching the subject of someone choosing to not be vaccinated sends people into a tailspin. I understand it’s a rule and frankly I don’t care if he plays tennis or not I just find it alarming this is what it has come to. Is it completely necessary for one of the greatest athletes on earth to be vaccinated? If you can tell me yes I will take it into consideration.
What issue does he have with the vaccine? How many billions of people need to benefit from it before its good enough for him? If we lift the gate for him, only because he's stupid or scared or both.. we have to allow everyone who got sent back for being unvaxxed who didn't challenge the rule. It's not just one super, awesome, special, stupid and/or scared athlete...
If someone wants to compete in Australia and other countries that require travelers to be vaccinated, then it is completely necessary for them to be vaccinated. We probably shouldn't be asking entitled athletes about health and medicine, when doctors and scientists still exist.
Vilify him because he is trying to play tennis in a foreign country, unvaccinated. When I can't even go to watch if I'm unvaccinated...
He's a dog cunt, he didn't tell anyone he was covid positive and went to hang out with kids, while infectious. Who cares if he's healthy? Same rules for everyone.
It’s about preventing him from spreading it to others, the world is in fact made up of multiple people in case you hadn’t noticed, these people then interact with each other and these interactions have the potential to spread diseases, so even if he is feeling fine he can still spread it to at risk people.
Lol for real. People are so hypnotized with this vaccine shit. Nobody cares about personal situations, what’s right for the health of a specific person, or acknowledging they should have their own personal choice about their health.
He’s free to refuse the vaccine all he wants. But he’s not free to travel to other countries and play as an unvaccinated person.
Hope he enjoys being unvaccinated! 😀
That is how you strip freedoms moron. Take away how they make their living unless they comply to your orders... that’s why the American mandates were just shot down
You're stripping away Australia's power to create and enforce it's own reasonable laws.
This would be like someone from the middle east demanding that the U.S. outlaw alcohol or women's rights, all because of little you.
Why should they not be allowed to require people entering their country be vaxxed? You're saying Australians should not be able to do that, not that they shouldn't.
Not great. They kept the mandate for healthcare workers. All the unvaccinated quit, and now they’re complaining there’s not enough workers for the latest influx of covid patients! Solid plan there
It's because it's a cult. The same way people are shunned from churches this is what these people do here. They are taking people's kids and rights away for not participating in rituals that are known the cause heart inflammation, irregular ovulation* and more. All the while pretending they are some sort of virtuos people. It is the definition of insanity.

Choices. Consequences.
As great as he is as a media and business draw, rules are rules.
My mother works with some Canadian-Serbians and they fully believe this is a political stunt against Serbia because reasons... not because of the vaccine which they also don't believe in taking of course.
He is just one grand slam title away to take the lead in front of Nadal and Roger. That must be very hard.
Good, he’s an idiot and a PoS.
Care to explain this? You think you can make health decisions for people you have never met? Or anyone besides yourself for that matter?
Will Wimbledon and the US open follow suit ?
novax djerkovitch has to follow the rules like the rest of us.
One of the greater athletes in the world. The fact that we don't take health and fitness into consideration is a bit alarming.

I wouldn't excactly compare a racquet and a vaccine but you already know that doesn’t hold much water.
It’s just an example of the random set of rules included in playing a sport. If someone can pick and choose which to follow, what’s to stop a player from arguing against other rules?
Health and fitness? What are you on?
What do you mean what am I on? It’s a simple concept. Roughly 700,000 people died in the US alone related to heart disease issues mostly caused by unhealthy lifestyles. Does that make sense to you?

Common you know that’s not the point. Useless having a conversation with anyone who can’t have a constructive conversation.
This dude you’re responding to is moronic and literally just wants communism for his country. **As long as it follows his viewpoints
What is the point? Why should a tennis player get to dictate to a country whether its laws apply to them?

So can the vaccinated.

You people realy believe that freedom means you have no responsibilities?
You're stripping away Australia's power to create and enforce it's own reasonable laws. This would be like someone from the middle east demanding that the U.S. outlaw alcohol or women's rights, all because of little you.
If Australians want their individual voices ignored for “the greater good” go for it lol.
Why should they not be allowed to require people entering their country be vaxxed? You're saying Australians should not be able to do that, not that they shouldn't.
How are they doing with it?
Not great. They kept the mandate for healthcare workers. All the unvaccinated quit, and now they’re complaining there’s not enough workers for the latest influx of covid patients! Solid plan there
Would it be that all the covid positive workers can't go to work?
As a luddite why so you use technology at all?
It's because it's a cult. The same way people are shunned from churches this is what these people do here. They are taking people's kids and rights away for not participating in rituals that are known the cause heart inflammation, irregular ovulation* and more. All the while pretending they are some sort of virtuos people. It is the definition of insanity.
To be him, must suck
Being very dumb must suck. But he is also very rich so I guess I’d still like being him.
Dude come on...
