>PARIS, Jan 17 (Reuters) – Novak Djokovic could be barred from playing in the French Open as things stand now after the Sports Ministry said on Monday there would be no exemption from France’s new vaccine pass law. World number one Djokovic, who has not been vaccinated against COVID-19, was deported from Australia on Sunday before the first Grand Slam tournament of the year after losing a court case to have the cancellation of his visa overturned. Serbian Djokovic, who was barred from bidding to win a record 21st Grand Slam title at the Australian Open, has refused to vaccinate and was criticised for attending public events last month after testing positive for the coronavirus.
I am pretty sure there is a German word for what I am experiencing
He’ll probably get a fake vaccine certificate.
I am fully vaccinated but man. Where did we go in all of this. I don’t understand why healthy people who are tested are being restricted in travelling or attending anything.
I don’t understand where the common sense has gone that this is all nonsense and why people are accepting it. Sheeps.
Can’t wait for more Novax drama 🍿
good.
Isn’t he on the record about Naomi Osaka and why it’s important to follow the rules?
🍿 time!
Does anybody know the vaccination status of the Real Madrid players? How many gonna have to stay in Madrid when they play PSG?
Bravo la France
He used to be Novak but now he is Novax.
I would like to remind everyone that all covid vaccines in Europe have still conditional authorisations and full data will be available from ~2024 onwards. This is not my conspiracy theory but data available on EMA site. Implementing restrictions based on current legal status of vaccines is highly dubious IMHO.
I am not defending previous Novak behaviour, it was irresponsible if what I read is true. But this common hate towards him and agreeing with what is happening – arbitrary and questionable decisions to exclude him, is not direction we should be going. I am bewildered by mass approval of these policies.
This is so fucked up
Tja
Wohoo another part of this witch hunting is about to begin. Another country with politicians looking to pull some of that sweet PR with incoming elections
Finally some good news
At current he’d also be unable to play the US open. He could likely get into the US but he would not be allowed inside the stadium.
told you guys. the french don’t fuck around when it comes to covid.
Man, all this drama would go away if the man just got his damn shots…
It’s tragic to see how many people don’t want to hold governments accountable for dystopian and brain-dead behaviour like this but they’ll gladly accept it and say “just get the vaccine”. Despite the fact they have been proven to be mediocre at best, near useless with the newer variants, and above all, they are for your own sake and no one else. They do not reduce the spread. It’s been established. Yet people seem to carry on with this absurd charade.
It sounds cliche but wake the fuck up.
After all the horseshit from the past 2 yers, if he ends up taking the jabs to play the mayors, he’s going to look like the greatest knobhead,
Anyone spreading anti-vaxxer/anti-masker horseshit needs to be arrested, end of story.
Now if UK and US follow suit, he could grand slam the tournament bans.
rules are for everyone
Epicaricacy in English
By the time French open starts, the rules are relaxed. Most of the population has had o-micron and there are not many sick people any more.
Sorting by controversial.. this gunna be good.
Bad luck Novac. Hopefully Australia has created a precedent for these self entitled arseholes
Fair.
A sovereign country enforcing its own rules. This means no drama for either France or Novak, unlike that shitshow in Australia’s.
