symeonbrown No vax Djokovic - so entitled it’s untrue

symeonbrown And failed to isolate apparently. Not a hero.

symeonbrown Well news headlines and bulletins perhaps won’t really trouble us with too much reality. Instead they are full of the story of a man grown rich by hitting a ball very well, and a team apparently humiliated by not hitting a ball well enough. novakdjokovic

symeonbrown Well, I hope he isolated and he wasn't too poorly!

symeonbrown God , so boring . Can Djokovic and the Australian prime minister have a square go and whoever wins plays in the tournament

symeonbrown And he filled this the day after his ‘positive Covid test’

symeonbrown He would have been subjected to same rigid Covid-19 rules if he'd landed in France, UK, USA etc. Don't know why he thinks Australia should bend rules for him.

symeonbrown If true, why didn't he just say that in the first place?

symeonbrown So what? Shall we go see a positive friend every time we want to travel? Nothing says he still has antibodies or that they’ll be there at the end of the tournament

symeonbrown Looks like Covid has affected his senses.

symeonbrown The same day he was at an event?

symeonbrown What’s the penalty for lying? Or was he out and about while positive?

Novak Djokovic: Having Covid gave tennis star vaccine exemption - lawyersNovak Djokovic's lawyers say a positive test on 16 December allows the tennis star entry to Australia. Who does he think he is! He just plays tennis! It's not even his own country, what an attention seeker! Why does he think tennis is more important than others who haven't seen loved ones or have lost loved ones and still not allowed to travel there. What an ego! So, wait, he had it in June 2020 and December 2021?

Novak Djokovic pictured hugging children day after 'positive PCR test'Novak Djokovic's lawyers claim tennis star was given a vaccine exemption because he contracted the disease on December 16 - the same day he was pictured mixing with maskless people in Serbia. 'Is it not possible that an individual may be right and a government wrong?' H.D. Thoreau Does this mean he will be deported & fined for misinformation.

The one thing I can’t help but wonder about this whole Novak Djokovic vaccination messWe can’t help but compare the language around NovakDjokovic’s vaccination scandal with Naomi Osaka’s treatment at the French Open: Love the article. We do have a direct comparison though. Renata Voracova was there on the same exemption but quietly left the country when her visa was cancelled.

Novak Djokovic court application shows he tested positive for coronavirus on 16 December as he fights deportationThe Serbian tennis star received a document from the Australian government confirming he met the requirements for quarantine-free travel, the documents say. This guy should be ejected. A one line story. Why are people accusing him of lying here? Two panels of medical experts granted him an exemption. It's very likely that his previous infection was the reason. He is Covid-negative & has a natural immunity from having it previously, so what's the problem?

Why Novak has a 'good chance' of still playing in the Australian OpenOn Thursday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison revealed Djokovic's visa had been cancelled because he 'didn't meet the requirements of entry'. Don’t give in DjokerNole! Never easy but worth it. Nuremberg Code was made for a reason. Australia is violating the 1st principle of the code. So is the majority of the world unfortunately. Stay strong. 🙏
