Ehh? Who’s he?

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Ehh? Who’s he?

I remember the Sunday Sport reporting that he was alive and well and living on Mars.

Might not be true though.

[Sir Tigger KC]

It is the same with this vaccination thing.  Are you going to be happy having a unvaccinated nurse or doctor working on you in hospital?  Or a rich sportsman mixing in our society at a professional level, attending tournaments with other vaccinated sports people, giving a finger up at the rest of us who are trying to do the right thing and protect not only ourselves, but everyone around us?

Someone's vaccination status is none of mine or anybody else's business and they present more of a danger to themselves than anyone else.  It's their choice...... Or should be.    I find it shocking that there are those who think covid vaccines should be mandatory.   

As to Novaxx. Australia have their laws, which you may or not agree with, but everybody has to comply like it or not. 

Normally I would agree with that entirely Sir Tigger.  But we are talking about professionals here, and one in particular who thought he was above the Australian laws and could circumvent them, possibly putting the lives of those in that country, and at the tennis bash at risk.  Then the authorities and individuals have every right to know if he is vaccinated or not, and what his COVID history is; a fact he seemed to have lied about and circumvented when attending events elsewhere.

I don't disagree with that Lizzie.  The law is the law and everyone should comply no matter who you are, or whether you agree with the law or not. 

Your other opinion that you wouldn't want to be treated by an unvaccinated doctor though....    Why? 

Your opinion would have made sense 12 months ago when we thought the new vaccines were going to make us immune to Covid, but as we've since found out they don't..... It doesn't.  Your doctor is just as likely to be completely healthy unvaccinated as vaccinated as I imagine they are tested regularly. 

If your doctor or anyone else for that matter doesn't want the vaccine then that's their business in my opinion. They are no danger to you or me, more of a danger to themselves TBH.   

I do wonder why tens of thousands of NHS staff are refusing to get vaccinated though.... If I was wearing my tin foil helmet, I might think they know something we don't!

I'm wondering how this will pan out for all the elite 'footballists'. Quite a large number are unvaccinated because of concerns with stroke and heart attacks that 'appear' to have risen amongst young fit men following vaccination.

Will they be allowed to play outside of the UK?

[Doctor Gollum]

Sippy Cup has had his federal Vaccine Mandate shredded. SCOTUS have ruled it unconstitutional. 

The vaccine debate isn't about whether it is a good idea or not but rather the freedom of choice.

The antivax brigade are by and large retarded simpletons, but until very recently there hasn't been much in the way of  reasoned information to counter the barrage of vaccinate or die mantra.

If people choose, in an informed manner, to be vaccinated or not it doesn't matter their reasoning. But it should be a choice rather than a dictat.

I think the next big sporting event is the French Tennis Open. Wonder if Novax will be allowed in by Macron (assuming he's still in office)

The next big footie thing is the World Cup in Nov/Dec in Qatar. Will be interesting to see what happens there.

On a tangential topic, always surprises me how competitors need to have been diagnosed with severe asthma to compete in Cycling competitions .

I agree, but - if someone chooses not to get jabbed they then have a responsibility to ascertain whether or not they will be a higher risk to anyone else they may be in close proximity to.
If they ascertain that they will be, then they have a responsibilty to keep well away from other people, until such time as the risk becomes negligible.
If they dont do that, the rest of us should be allowed to shoot them for fun.

Yes, I have to agree with that Sir Tigger.  Maybe I am still in the mindset of eighteen months ago.  I suppose they are the most tested group, and I am fully vaccinated, so should be safe.

I still feel though that the medical profession should set an example unless they really cannot be vaccinated for their own health reasons.  It just does not sit right with me, but that is just my opinion!
