Novak Djokovic just won Wimbledon and now will not be able to play in the me US Open as of now because we deny science. The man has had Covid twice. He is literally one of the healthiest people walking this planet. I can pretty much guarantee you than not a single person on this site takes their health as serious as Djokovic. Go read his story…. I ate Novak Djokovic's gluten-free, plant-based diet for a week and ended up bored, uninspired, and craving a soda It is infuriating we still have these ridiculous Covid restrictions. Even more so for the people who actually set the example on how to beat Covid and done it twice. He is more protected than a vaccinated person at this point considering he has had the alpha and omicron versions of the disease. It is time to stop this nonsense… Novak Djokovic likely to miss US Open because he's 'not planning to get vaccinated' against COVID-19
He's a foreigner being denied entrance to our country because he won't follow the rules. I figured you'd be happy about that.
No one is worried about him dying on US shores, they are worried about him spreading disease. But sure, let’s get outraged, it’s the only way to be these days.
So all the people screaming that we are letting unvaccinated migrants in at the border want to cry foul when an unvaccinated tennis player is denied entry in NY? Seems a bit hypocritical to me, and how healthy he is as compared to the rest of the population is irrelevant to how potent his viral load might be if he tested positive again. But before everyone jumps on me, I do think it’s well past time we treat this pandemic as endemic and get back to living as we previously knew it. Covid is widely prevalent now but there are very few hospitalizations and fewer deaths. I’m actually in NY now and other than a small % of folks wearing masks, the city is crowded and wide open.
Stupid is not allowing Novak Djokovic to come and play tennis in this country. But I suppose ignoring this stupidity is smart to some…
Pure nonsense. As we let people cross our border illegally with no worry. We allow our citizens to return. This is pure stupidity now! Especially considering the circumstances of the whole. But hey…ignoring science is something our leaders are good at.
I just want to enforce our border and laws when it comes to that issue. Testing for Covid for entry is just stupid at this point.
Pretty sure they dropped the testing requirements. Which was the right thing to do. Now they need to get rid of this stupidity…
