This is a tale of great courage in the face of extreme coercion.<\/p>\n
The best lines:<\/p>\n
If you are time limited, just watch for a few seconds from 1:39 to 1:55:<\/p>\n
BBC: \u201cAre you prepared to forgo the chance to be the greatest player to ever pick up a racket statistically because you feel so strongly about this jab?\u201d<\/p>\n
Djokovic: \u201cYes, I do.\u201d<\/p>\n
And he made the sacrifices, including tournaments (including the US Open and Australian Open) and endorsements, to uphold his principles. It cost him millions of dollars.<\/p>\n
My favorite line in the 6 minute documentary:<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing is more important than following public health advice.\u201d (at the 4:05 minute mark). The speaker was Daniel Andrews, 48th premier of Victoria, Australia from 2014 to 2023.<\/p>\n
And at the 5 minute mark, you\u2019ll learn that the Australian courts ruled that he was \u201ca threat to public health.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wow.<\/p>\n
How is that even possible??? Vaccinated people are more likely to spread COVID than unvaccinated people. The US CDC data shows that clearly. This was absolutely the right decision for himself and for protecting society.<\/p>\n
Those who took the jab now suffer from dramatically increased odds of getting COVID (which was recently confirmed yet again in this study in Japan which was ignored by the worldwide mainstream media) as well as \u201cdying suddenly.\u201d<\/p>\n
Have any other professional tennis players stood up to the coercion?<\/p>\n
Out of 3,873 ranked professional tennis players worldwide in 2017, I\u2019m only aware of 3 players who did the right thing and refused to take the shots:<\/p>\n
Novak Djokovic: The world-renowned Serbian player has been notably unvaccinated, leading to his withdrawal from tournaments with strict vaccination requirements.<\/p>\n
Tennys Sandgren: The American player has openly expressed his decision not to receive the vaccine, resulting in his absence from certain competitions.<\/p>\n
Pierre-Hugues Herbert: The French doubles specialist has also chosen to remain unvaccinated, affecting his participation in specific events.<\/p>\n
Isn\u2019t that sad? Fewer than 1 in 1,000 were willing to resist government coercion and stand up for medical freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
