Novak Djokovic's Vaccine Stance & Visa Troubles

[the AntiPusher]

If Novak really IS out of the picture, we can discuss the draw. There will be only one other player who has won a Major. Medvedev. And then there's Rafa. This is another reason I'm watching Meddie right now. Aside from rooting for the Italians, and the eye candy on offer. Can someone please teach Berrettini a net game? He's not going to beat Medvedev from the back of the court.

Novak is going to appeal to a higher court..money.its the only hope by now which is going to fall on deaf ears

It also might help his cause using the right shot selection,using the slice bhand down the line? hey....brainless from Matteo

People with money and big lawyers don't just go away quietly, and there was talk of challenging it in court. But it will be interesting to see what he's going to expose to the public record.

I expected his lawyers were going to challenge,it is the "last roll of the dice' for Novak.

my question is: How does Djokovic get a medical exemption if he is completely healthy?! What reason can he really use to get the exemption?

That is the question we are all asking,there is soo much 'grey' around him getting a medical exemption in the first place.
Our Health Minister was surprised he was allowed into Australia without being double vaccinated.

It is my considered opinion that he doesn't have a valid excuse, only that he paid a doctor to give him one. Call me cynical. It's possible he had covd recently, and that would give him one, but that also is unlikely.

Novak's hearing will now be heard at 6pm not 4pm as previously posted.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Novak will apparently also make his case in a zoom telecast from his hotel room citing he did not have enough time to get the correct paper work in order and in time?
The case is now being heard.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Of course Rafa in his presser was asked is opinion regarding Novak Djokovic

"The world has been suffering enough.Get vaccinated".
"If he wanted,he would be playing here in Australia without problems.He makes his own decision.Everyone is free to take their own decisions,but then there are some consequences,no?".

So, for now, he'll just stay locked down in his quarantine hotel while it makes its way through the court? This seems elaborate, if it were just a matter of filing for the proper visa. This makes us think that they're questioning the medical exemption, no? Well, it seems like we may all know what the exemption was about, after all.

Correct Novak will be staying in his quarantine hotel.Novak's paperwork on arrival was 'minimal' and only supported by one doctor.Far less substantive than the 3 others who entered using same vaccine exemption.Official's asked him to hand up more documentation none was produced.

Serbian doctors scribbling franticly as we speak then, I guess. As in the US, I imagine there is a penalty for submitting falsified documents to federal authorities in Australia. He should be careful.

Indeed.Coming here on false documents and being deported,you cannot apply to come here for 3 years.
There have been rumors he had COVID 6 months ago,though that dosent give you exemption to enter Australia unvaccinated.

This is not going to end well! I truly hope an issue is trumped up with the #1 player in the world not being able to defend his title!

As I said before this would not have happened if he had the correct visa.
