And he wasn't turned back by Australian immigration officials at the airport?

He was!
That was the meaning of the cancelled visa. His visa was cancelled and he was sent to the isolation center awaiting deportation. Then he launched and won his court case.

Moral: no matter who you are in the society, no matter how highly placed, never move to any sane country illegally. Dude will be missed though. 0912 7724742 call/Whatsapp for EFCC SCUML Cert. CAC business registration, change of Director/shareholders, Annual returns filing etc.

The country that u call sane is d same country that earlier issued a visa to Djokovic because he is highly placed and despite his vax status. It was only after public outcry because d govt of Australia has been oppressing citizens because of vaccination, that d govt now started trying to make Djokovic look like a scapegoat

Djokovic deserves what he got. Nobody is above the law. He was not straight forward in his case.

Went to Spain but didn't declare it.
Tested covid positive, next day he was shaking people in public.

I have come to the reality that when a well known or successful person meets with certain difficulties, it tends to give orgasmic feeling to many unrelated people. The revel in the persons sorrow or downfall and will always be quick to justify their perverted feelings. I can bet that had Djukovic succeeded in the case many of these haters would have kept quiet and minded their business, but alas he failed, the jury is out.
Now I am in no way justifying what he has done right or wrong. Its just an observation that it seems as if the majority of people silently pray for the downfall of people who are better off than them so as to let loose their failures and insecurities in the form of criticism, quite sad indeed.

I believe the issue wasn't really about a player not taking the vaccine. But his status in the tournament and the implications of his decision not to be vaccinated on the fans yet to receive the jab.

He is world number1 tennis player, and might probably win the tournament if he competes.

Other players were fully vaccinated and if he without vaccination wins the tournament, this send a wrong message to the public that the vaccine is not necessary.

Exactly the argument! And they have a point! Djokovic forgets he is a role model sha.

But those who have taken d vaccine are afraid of those who haven't. If d vaccine is so effective, why d fear and why d need to wear face masks despite vaccination? How come Cyril Ramaphosa got infected despite being "fully vaccinated"?

Some of you are just busy talking trash of him breaking the law and nobody is above the law while you failed to ask yourself if the law was fair and just. When it comes to your health, one should not make law for you because it is your health. Studies have shown that the vaccinated are more been hospitalized. You can't force people against their wish and call it a law. Where is now the right to freedom. All kinds of human rights taught are all but a scam.

Balderdash and anyhow opinion! When it comes to the health of others, which the unvaccinated affect through their serious hospitalizations affecting the healthcare system for other patients who really need care, the government has a right to step in!

You have forgotten something called herd immunity that is why. The more the vaccinated, the less the risk of getting infected and the less the virus strains that keep coming up from the unvaccinated that could render the vaccines useless or require the use of boosters as is currently happening.

Being vaccinated doesn't mean you won't get infected, what the vaccine does is to get the body system to fight back better to prevent serious hospitalizations that the unvaccinated could have.

It is not until everyone but at least a reasonable majority to reduce the risk of these strains that keep coming up from time to time. The work of a vaccine is to help the body fight infection not prevent infection especially not for a cocktail of viruses that keep showing up cyclically every 100 years. I rest my case. No more replies to my mention from this quarter again.

Absolutely insensitive. Even the French are now telling him not to come for the French Open if he remains unvaccinated.

As should be. Expect the Americans too to do the same! He might only be playing at the Wimbledon this season.

Rights are collective, no right or freedom is absolute if your right/freedom is a threat and danger to the health and safety of others you can not have it because your right is not superior to someone else's health and safety.

Where your rights end that is where someone else's right starts

Thank you! Your health is not government's business, but the health of others and the use of their healthcare system efficiently is definitely government's business!

Many share this view.... fed misinformation and label facts as misinformation. Let's chew on what you are saying.

First... vaccine... the work of a vaccine [b]is to prevent infection.
.. it doesn't help... but makes the body develop antibodies to prevent infection. Didn't your Polio/Measles/Chicken Pox vaccine do that? If you didn't have the vaccine... but got infected ... did you get infected a second time?... or.did you have to take booster shots? Either way.. the body developed antibodies to prevent infection. Does the same happen with COVID-19 mRNA vaccines? Why not?

On the majority of people vaccinated to reduce infection. What percentage of Americans is vaccinated? What percentage of Nigerians is vaccinated? What is the infection numbers for the US?.... Positives numbers?.... death numbers? .... compared to Nigeria? ... can you explain?
