Novak Djokovic will have at least gained something during his trip to Australia: a nickname. Currently locked up in a Melbourne detention center, where he is supposed to play the Australian Open, the first Grand Slam of the 2022 season, the best tennis player on the planet is waiting for justice to examine his visa, Monday January 10. The Serbian has made a lot of talk in recent days, to the point of being renamed “Novax” Djokovic by fans of another genre. Those, less passionate about his incredible baseline game that by its anti-vaccine positions against Covid-19, have found their new hero. “The free man is on Djokovic’s side”, savor for example Florian Philippot, figure of the anti-tax movement in France.

THANK YOU @DjokerNole

Better: “Djoko” has really become in the eyes of his father “the symbol and leader of the free world, the world of the poor and oppressed nations and peoples”. It is “the Spartacus of the new world who does not tolerate injustice, colonialism and hypocrisy”, proudly brandishes Srdjan Djokovic in an interview with Serbian media Telegraf. In Serbia, the “Djoko” case is taken very seriously by the medical profession. The aura of the country’s child is such that some health professionals believe that it bears part of the responsibility for the fact that the vaccination rate slips. A regional study conducted last fall by the Balkans in Europe Policy Advisory Group (Biepag) found that more than half of respondents had “no intention” to receive their doses (page 6) and that the conspiracy theories around Covid-19 met with an echo “striking” in the Balkans.
So far, the man with 20 Grand Slam titles has maintained the vagueness by refusing to comment on his personal situation. His lawyers nevertheless specified, Saturday, January 8, that he was motivating his request for exemption by an infection with the virus, contracted last December. “I am opposed to the vaccination against Covid-19 to be able to travel. But if it becomes mandatory, I will have to decide if I do it or not. I have my own opinion on the matter, will it change at some point, I don’t know “, for example released “Nole” in April 2020, at a time when the pandemic was beginning and when laboratories were just beginning their research to find a vaccine. In November 2021, the player took advantage of the Masters played in Turin to reiterate at a press conference that“we should have the freedom to choose, to decide what we want to do [à propos de la vaccination]. In this particular case, what we want to inject into the body. ”
This is because the 34-year-old star is used to holding unique positions on the subject of science and health. In the spring of 2020, for example, he said during a live on Instagram: “I have seen and know people who, thanks to this energy, thanks to the powers of prayer and thanksgiving, have succeeded in transforming the most toxic of foods, or even the most polluted of waters, into the purest water. Because water reacts to our emotions. “
Let’s not lose sight of how wildly anti-science Djokovic has publicly been for years.
Here he was last year preaching about how you can change water with emotion.
Naive, but maybe these real consequences today can be a reality check for his nonsense?pic.twitter.com/LyJbJTvb9W

Almost at the same time, he was in fact at home in Belgrade, sorting out the final details of the Adria Tour, a tournament he himself envisioned in response to the cancellation of many tennis events. during the pandemic. On site, the masks are very good in the pockets and social distancing very well in the locker room. It’s more of a walkabout atmosphere with the kids, hugs, hugs and nightclub trips (as shown in the pictures below).
