Taken for Fools: Without Vaccination, allowed to play..?

But Novak Djokovic
, the world's number one tennis player, has been standing on one leg saying he will not be vaccinated against the corona. His stand, which has caused great controversy, has led to his inability to participate in the Australian Open series. Novak Djokovic, who has won 20 Grand Slam titles, equaled the record of Roger Federer and Nadal, who suffered defeat at the US Open finals last year and then rested for a while. Novak Djokovic is currently aiming to win his first Grand Slam series of the year, the Australian Open, which is currently taking place this month. But he has a problem.
If he wants to play in the Australian Open, he must provide proof that he is vaccinated for the corona vaccine. Novak Djokovic , however, said he had not been vaccinated because of a health problem he had. He said doctors had certified that he was not fit to be vaccinated The Australian tennis Association agreed and allowed Novak Djokovic to play. The decision came as a biggest shock to the public. Many people who are not eligible to be vaccinated are paralyzed due to the rules of not being able to go abroad. But they questioned the government as to how only Novak Djokovic was allowed.
Aussie prime minister Strictly speaking on the matter, prime minister Scott Morrison said he would only be allowed to come to australia if Novak Djokovic proved he was unfit to be vaccinated. Otherwise, he will be sent back on the next flight. Similarly, tennis legend Rod Laver said it was unacceptable to say that a person who has won 20 Grand Slam titles is ineligible to be vaccinated.

Meanwhile, it has been revealed that Novak Djokovic's aides have obtained the wrong visa. Novak Djokovic has been detained by airport officials, who said it was not possible to say the visa holders had not been vaccinated for medical reasons.
