Relaxation of Restrictions, Part XII *Read OP For Mod Warnings*

No, he's not dead right IMO, he's looking to enter a country but not abide by that country's rules, and he's getting an exemption to do so - its pretty easy to see why the residents are upset in fairness. Requiring a vaccination to enter a certain country is hardly a new thing.

It’s called ‘displaced anger’ which is a psychological defence mechanism when a person redirects a negative emotion from its original source to a less threatening recipient.

Remember that Hogan ‘golfgate’ circus, another good example.

I'm not getting into the health of the Australian population, I'm simply pointing out this is a different strokes for different folks decision and Australians (who incidently were locked down, not out of personal choice) will be rightly pissed off at different rules for the rich. It stinks to high heaven in my humble opinion.

In theory they should but they do need to get to people very early on in the disease. By the time we get any decent supply of them many of those policies should be limited or gone.

I keep seeing this and sure, it's not a new thing. But it would be a pretty rare thing for most people and it's usually only vaccination against yellow fever (which has a CFR many, many times higher than covid) that's required if arriving from an infected area. The yellow fever vaccine is a one-and-done, single-dose vaccine that offers lifetime protection. Only twelve known cases of yellow fever after vaccination have been recorded.

Needing an injection every 6-12 months to hop over to the UK or take a short break in Prague is a completely new thing. Given that it is unlikely to remain a free vaccination for people outside vulnerable groups, that also has implications for the cost of travel for most people.

I didn't know he was responsible for the lockdown over there.

That puts a completely different slant on things.

What a p***k.

You do realise that flu vaccines are changed every year to target the latest predicted strain? (of which there are many)

Covid vaccines on the other hand lose most of their efficacy against infection after several months - covid vaccines have not changed 1 iota since they first debuted last year. The booster you take is the exact same as the first 2 doses, and there is no sign of that changing. Trying to equate it to a flu shot is totally misinformed on your part.

Your being a clown now, read my post .I've not blamed him for anything, just pointing out how this looks to Australians who know full well what the rules are, resorting to personal insults doesn't make your argument anymore coherent I'm afraid.

Just out of curiosity are you more interested in defending the players ant vaccine stance or trying to find away to defend the indefensible.

Don't bother mentioning me in response, I don't engage with posters being insulting.

Welcome to my ignore list

Let's be fair here - your contributions betray quite a level of anger towards Djokovic. You can claim you don't care less but your contributions say the opposite. Is it the not falling in line that upsets you? Arrogant and petulant aren't words used by someone who couldn't care less.

Either way - the dispensation or accommodations afforded here are all on the Australians authorities/organisers themselves.

our?

Who are you including with yourself in that?
