Kelly Slater has ‘no chance of getting into' Australia if not vaccinated, says Sports Minister Richard Colbeck | michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe

, posting on social media that “maybe Stockholm Syndrome can now change its name to Melbourne/Australia syndrome” and “so much brainwashed hatred in people’s hearts regardless of vax status”.

“I reckon he knows the rules. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a surfer, or a tennis player, a tourist or anyone else, those are the rules. They apply to everyone,” Mr Colbeck said. Medina, the defending world champion from Brazil, said in August that he had refused the Brazilian Olympic Committee’s offer of a vaccine before the Tokyo Olympics, but the following day posted on Instagram that “vaccines save lives” and he would get his jab “soon”.“I reckon he knows the rules. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a surfer, or a tennis player, a tourist or anyone else, those are the rules. They apply to everyone.

“We encourage everyone who is able to get vaccinated and have advised everyone associated with the WSL that unvaccinated individuals may face significant challenges as they travel around the world and may be prohibited from entering certain countries,” he said.

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe Novak wasn't vaccinated and he got in.

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe Nor does he deserve it.

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe Covid is so rampant in Australia now, if he chooses to not be vaccinated b/c generally he can self isolate well and protect himself and others that way when not on tour, there is more risk to him getting it and at a minimum it affecting his sports performance at a crucial time

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe So how did Novax get in? Still no answer.

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe His decision

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe Controlling what you can and as best possible, is fundamental actions in a pandemic. It’s not political, it’s public health science.

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe If the rationale for the current vaccine is simply mitigation of demand for health services, rather than actual spread of the cirus, the requirement for internationals that will likely pay over the odds for health care (or not need it) is unnecessary.

michaelkoziol DamienRactliffe Struggling to understand the science behind the minister’s comments - given the vaccine is not stopping the spread of the virus evidenced by the number of cases in Aust, so the logic of having this requirement in place is not longer there.
