🔵 Documentary by The Epoch Times, reveals the truth that has been hidden from the American people. It's available FREE online through the end of September👉https://ept.ms/3ocCvVY
World tennis star Novak Djokovic is unvaccinated, and because the USA (per the CDC) still has a policy requirement of vaccination for incoming foreigners, he has had to withdraw from the upcoming US Open. This continues an ongoing debate about the vaccine requirement and how that is costing many people and athletes opportunities.
This is an athlete, healthier than most of us, who watches every single thing he puts
in his body in order to keep a competitive advantage.
So if he believes that any medicine or vaccine is something that might alter his health or
performance and jeopardize his career, he has every right to reject it.
Health choices are not a one-size-fits-all prescription.
There may be some general guidelines that give you some choices, but any mandate has
to be disconcerting.
Furthermore, tennis is an individual sport, largely played outdoors.
Tennis players are truly socially distanced, in a maximum sort of way.
The only handshake or contact you see is after the match is over.
So really, does Joker pose a threat to other players or to the crowd that packs in there
like sardines?
This is where we see gaping holes in logic when it comes to health guidance, but we have
been seeing that for the better part of two years now.
As an American, you can travel to Europe, like I recently did to France, without any
proof of vaccination.
You can come back to America from Europe without proof of it either.
But if you're foreign, and especially if you're a world tennis star who has provided many
reasons for not being vaccinated, you cannot play in the U.S. Open.
You may remember that Djokovic had the same exact problem with the Australian Open.
He filled out all the forms.
He went through all the proper protocols.
He made it to Australia, was detained, and then deported.
What a disastrous and childish display put on by the Australian government.
And now, our government is showing a similar thing.
Reporter Peter Doocy asked Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the hypocrisy of
unvaccinated migrants who are coming across our southern border, yet they don't allow
Djokovic.
Take a listen.
How come migrants are allowed to come into this country unvaccinated, but world-class
tennis players are not?
You're talking about which world-class tennis player?
Novak Djokovic.
So as far, you know, just since you asked me about him, so visa records are confidential
under U.S. law, therefore the U.S. government cannot discuss the details of individual visa
cases.
Due to privacy reasons, the U.S. government also does not comment on medical information
of individual travelers as it relates to the tennis player.
Look, those questions regarding vaccination requirements is, I defer you to CDC, this
is a CDC requirement for foreign nationals.
This is something that they decide.
This is, so this is something that is up to them.
The U.S. Open and their participant protocols, I'd refer you to them.
They have their own specific protocols as well.
So they're two different things.
They're two different things.
But so are, how is it two different things?
Somebody unvaccinated comes over on a plane.
You say that's not okay.
Somebody walks into Texas or Arizona unvaccinated, they're allowed to stay.
Why?
But that's not how it works.
Like, we actually, no.
I know that that's not what you guys want to happen, but that is what is happening.
But that's not, it's not like somebody walks over and that's not, that's not how.
That's exactly what's happening.
We, what?
Thousands of people are walking in a day.
Some of them turn themselves over.
Some of them are caught.
Tens of thousands a week are not.
That is what is happening.
The funny thing is that she acts like she doesn't know who Djokovic is, even though
she keeps looking down at her notes, because she anticipated that this might come up.
Now that's just speaking out of both sides of your mouth, is it not?
And smartly, some Southern state governors are busing immigrants to DC, right there in
Joe Biden's backyard.
So much so that Mayor Muriel Bowser has asked for National Guard help, which they have declined.
Remember that it was Muriel Bowser, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer that declined National
Guard help on January 6th.
You see the picture that I'm painting?
They wanted a confrontation on January 6th.
And now that migrants are being dumped in DC because of horrible Biden policy, they
are reaping what they have sowed.
So no vaccine required of immigrants who are caught and released in this country, but the
world number one player cannot play in the U.S. Open.
In one of my recent episodes, I profiled the disgrace of the soon-to-be-retired Anthony
Fauci and how his misguided policy stunted an entire generation.
As if we needed anything else to dumb down a generation addicted to TikTok.
But Fauci, the CDC, the NIH, all of them provided faulty guidance, and to this day, provide
guidance that's not guidance, it's mandated.
And with all that we know about vaccines now, from their short-lived efficacy, to the lack
of protection or transmission, to the VAERS side effects and documented myocarditis, especially
in young men, why have any mandate at all?
And in a typically testy exchange between Senator Rand Paul and Fauci, Rand Paul asks
Fauci why there is no data to support giving the vaccine to children under five years old.
In typical Fauci fashion, he fumbles.
He also won't disclose who with the CDC and NIH got kickbacks for pushing the big
pharma vaccines.
I mean, wouldn't it alarm you if you knew that the very people making nationwide health
policy are being paid by Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson?
Doesn't that change everything?
Fauci is hiding this.
He's being disingenuous about it.
We can't have policymakers this beholden to big pharma.
But it's clearly the reason that Novak Djokovic cannot play in the U.S. Open.
I mean, if he had an active COVID case right now, that would be different.
Even so, the mortality rate is way, way down.
You probably also remember the controversy with Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers,
who was not vaccinated.
A reporter asked him if he was, and he said that he had been immunized, which in his mind,
he was.
He had done all of the things necessary for his health to be in the top form.
It wasn't even that reporter's business to ask him such a private question.
And if it had been me, I would have told him that.
But Rodgers then got in trouble with the NFL for saying that he was immunized as a semantical
play on words.
Once again, the NFL created mandated policy based on Fauci and the CDC's bad guidance.
I bet you most of the players in the NFL did not want the vaccine.
They've gone into huddles before with guys who have active flu and over 100 degree fevers,
but they play the sport and take the risk because getting a potential concussion is
far worse than a 10-day virus.
And look at Tom Brady, who created his own line of TB12 sports nutrition.
I don't recall him ever being asked about being vaccinated, and I'm not sure if he is
or not, probably, but he got to go to the White House unmasked.
I think Djokovic has become a whipping boy for the militant left.
I have no idea where Knoll stands in politics.
He probably smartly stays pretty quiet.
But the left, especially the left and the globalists, use COVID as a measure of control
and fear.
Novak has stayed firm in his position, and it stinks for him to be forbidden from competing.
But it also stinks for the fans who want to see him play.
They lose too.
And I think the sport loses.
The Women's Tennis Association was the only league to stand up to the Chinese Communist
Party when it pulled tournaments out of China after the disappearance of Chinese tennis
star Ping Shuai.
While all the other leagues were jumping on the BLM bandwagon, like the NFL, when they
should have been focusing on domestic violence, which affects players more than anything else,
the WTA actually stood for something.
As a corollary, the U.S. Tennis Association should stand up to this CDC requirement.
They could actually make a positive change in the sports world.
