Djokovic...and all others with enlarged opinions of their stature...needs to heed this lesson...well stated by the author of this article in The Guardian...

move on his part...that's three more "Grand Slam" tourneys he can't play in.

he supposedly contracted since prior infection with either the original version or the Delta variant does NOT provide immunity...not even close...you just have to go back to my "UCSF Grand Rounds" video for an explanation.
"Novax" has told so many conflicting stories, he'll never be able to put a coherent case together...darn those 'free press' expose's...bye, bye, Novax...good luck getting into the French Open, with Macron making life miserable for the Unvaxxed...or Wimbledon, where Boris is dealing with blowback over his behavior...or the U.S. Open and Biden trying to get everyone here vaxxed.
All this trouble over simple, safe, effective vaccine shots...go figure.
He has obviously lied to the visa people in Australia and the tennis association that governs world professional tennis about everything from
his isolations to his immunity status. He's flaunted his talent and status as the #1 tennis pro by bullying the tennis world and now a sovereign country
to bend to his life choices and abandon their very rules of safety and health. He's been belligerent at every turn. He's attempted to force Australian
law there for its citizens to abide by one rule while he, a foreigner, can do whatever he chooses all because he's Novack D.
Get the Jab - and STFU!
Then you can go out and play some tennis.
Said Hawke: "Australia's strong border protection policies have kept us safe during the pandemic, resulting in one of the lowest death rates, strongest economic recoveries, and highest vaccination rates in the world.
"Strong border protection policies are also fundamental to safeguarding Australia's social cohesion, which continues to strengthen despite the pandemic," he added.
Out with it, Stark...
Novak Djokovic had contracted Covid and recovered twice, including last month. He has stronger immunity to Covid than most vaccinated individuals and was granted a medical exemption - yet is now deported on political grounds.
The nature of our situation has changed drastically and yet some of us are still ritualistically following the old outdated protocols.

he had gotten an mRNA vaccine shot afterward, which we can be sure didn't happen...search my "UCSF Grand Rounds" video for backup and an explanation.
The only "irrationality" here is why Djokovic would sacrifice his tennis future over simple, safe and effective vaccine shots...the simple answer:...Vanity.
We'll still not know which mitigations worked and which didn't.
We won't have good contextualized data and an ever skeptical public distrustful of scientific and health officials.
Get vaccinated or don’t play. All those prima donna assholes like Wentz and Rodgers can pack sand.
Just like universities are doing. Get the jab or stay off campus.
Djokovic thinks it is about him, and that he is entitled to special treatment. Hit the bricks, pal.
Like little sheep.
And all the rule-followers will do it, because they’ve been told omicron can be really dangerous for fully vaxxed 19 year-olds. Sad and pathetic.

post provides the answer.
I"ve been called both...meanwhile, I continue to advocate for free and fair elections as well as a "Capitalistic Free Market System"...I hope that doesn't add to your confusion.
