Novak Djokovic’s stubborn stance on Covid vaccination sparks frenzy again

  1. His body his choice. He said on the news this morning he’s prepared to miss the tournaments so can’t see what the fuss is. They even said he’ll be able to play in France soon as the rules are starting to change with the cases going down.

  2. What a happy occasion for all of the thousands (if not millions) of Slavic hating bigot cunts world-wide to get a chance to finally pour shit on Novak. They had such a hard time all those years swallowing a Serbian on his way to become GOAT and now this COVID has saved the day – truly wonderful turn of events!

  3. He is an antivaxxer if he isn’t willing to get it… Anyone not getting it at this stage, when it’s proven safe and effective, is anti vaccine and anti logic and science…

    It seems pretty dumb on his part, when this is his career. If it’s needed for tournaments and he won’t be able to play in the, then his career is basically over. Not to mention it shows what kind of person he is even more. It’ll also hurt his sponsors. If it were me, I’d just do the smart and sensible thing and get vaccinated. Now he’s always going to be known as Novax Gotcovid….

  4. > “I was never against vaccination,” he told the BBC, confirming that he’d had vaccines as a child, “but I’ve always supported the freedom to choose what you put in your body.”

    Thank God I’m also free to say he is a fucking imbecile

  5. Friendly reminder:

    >It was a life-changing moment. Djokovic was in Croatia in the summer of 2010 for a Davis Cup tie and was having a consultation with Dr Igor Cetojevic, a nutritionist and fellow Serb.
    >
    >Cetojevic told Djokovic to stretch out his right arm while placing his left hand on his stomach. The doctor then pushed down on Djokovic’s right arm and told him to resist the pressure. The strength Djokovic would feel in holding firm, the doctor said, was exactly what he should experience.
    >
    >Next Cetojevic gave Djokovic a slice of bread. He told the bemused player not to eat it but to hold it against his stomach with his left hand while he again pushed down on his outstretched right arm. To Djokovic’s astonishment, the arm felt appreciably weaker.
    >
    >It was what Cetojevic had expected. His crude test had been to discover whether Djokovic was sensitive to gluten, a protein found in wheat and other bread grains. Looking back, it was the moment when Djokovic discovered why he had suffered so many mid-match collapses in his career – and the starting point for a lifestyle change which led to his becoming world No 1 just 12 months later.

    >Until now Djokovic has been reluctant to go into detail about the regime that has turned his life and career around. Today, however, the 34-year-old Serb tells his story in a remarkable book, Serve To Win, which reveals how changing his diet has transformed his health and tennis.
