Because we have immunocompromised people among us who may be affected because of our unwillingness to take precautions it is not always about you but about the interest and well being of your next-door neighbour because our rights are all collective

As long as there is a public emergency which concerns the general public it is not about you but about everybody and so you don't get to have a choice that will put others at risk

So if the jab is so effective, why different variants and doses popping up...and why 99% of Nigerians and people of some nations have not been infected...leave healthy people alone, nose mask and adequate spacing is being enforced already.

I Love the courage of Novak.
I will Sacrifice all including my life not to take that thing. Never Ever.

How does not taking that injection put others at risk? Is not like the so-called Covid vaccine does the work of a vaccine.

Mintum:

can't you read that it was a journalist that asked him the question which he answered? You are talking as if he is the one that went out on his own to start talking about it. Even if he talks about it on his own, he is right. The behaviour of all these governments to force vaccines on people is nothing but dictatorship. Why should everybody be forced to take that vaccine when the vaccine is neither a prevention or a cure for covid? People that are vaccinated still contact it, people that are vaccinated still die from it so what's all this rubbish about making everyone take it by force?

Novak Djokovic has said he would rather miss out on future tennis trophies than be forced to get a Covid vaccine.

Speaking exclusively to the BBC, he said he should not be associated with the anti-vax movement, but supported an individual's right to choose.
Djokovic was asked if he would sacrifice taking part in competitions such as Wimbledon and the French Open over his stance on the vaccine.

"Yes, that is the price that I'm willing to pay," he said.

The 20-times Grand Slam winner was deported from Australia last month after the government cancelled his visa in a row over his vaccine status [https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-60014059].

Djokovic, who is the world's number one men's tennis player, said he had obtained a medical exemption to enter the country to play in the Australian Open as he had recently recovered from Covid-19.
However, the country's immigration minister, Alex Hawke, personally cancelled the 34-year-old's visa, on the grounds that his presence could incite "civil unrest" and encourage anti-vaccine sentiment.

"I was never against vaccination," he told the BBC, confirming that he'd had vaccines as a child, "but I've always supported the freedom to choose what you put in your body."

In a wide-ranging interview, his first since he was detained in Melbourne in January, Djokovic addressed speculation about the timing of his positive Covid case in December and discussed his own attitude towards the vaccine.

Djokovic said he hoped vaccination requirements in certain tournaments would change, adding that he was hoping that he "can play for many more years".

But he also confirmed he was willing to forego the chance to become statistically the greatest male tennis player of all time because he felt so strongly. Djokovic's rival, Rafael Nadal, has won 21 Grand Slam titles - the most of any competitor.

Asked why, he replied: "Because the principles of decision making on my body are more important than any title or anything else. I'm trying to be in tune with my body as much as I possibly can."

Djokovic said he had "always been a great student of wellness, wellbeing, health, nutrition," and that his decision had been partly influenced by the positive impact that factors such as changing his diet and his sleeping patterns, had had on his abilities as an athlete.

Or are u saying the millions who haven't taken it, we will all catch covid and give you wey don take the vaccine?

Get sense abeg

gsparks01:
he just said he doesn't care and you're saying this.

AmazonTopaz:

Because it is a public health emergency and rights are always collective.

It isn't about you but the interest and well being of others the government must protect public safety and an ongoing pandemic is tantamount to public safety if enforcing vaccine mandates is a way of ridding ourselves of the pandemic then under emergency powers many democratic governments are well within their rights to enforce.

AmazonTopaz:

Please be quiet and learn and stop making silly assumptions,don't you know that it is in the nature of viruses to always mutate and become resistant?
Where did you get the stats that 99% of Nigerians have not been infected do you exactly know anything about covid and in how many places is it being enforced.

Mind you, it is not about healthy people alone we have immunocompromised people who have preexisting underlying diseases who can be easily affected and could die so it is about protecting them and not just about you the healthy ones owe a duty of care to them.

Go and teach your father zombie. The virus is not our problem

brightalo1010:


Your death won't change anything.

Your hate and false preachings are more dangerous than any vaccine on earth.

Haba!! Oga,.Qu'est Ce Que c'est?

Originalsly:


Your comments are like one who cram information ... and repeat it without understanding.... aka ... brainwashed. Does COVID-19 so called vaccines prevent people from getting infected ? If yes ... then it can end the pandemic. If no ... as is the case ... how will everyone being vaccinated end the pandemic? Let's hear your opinion.

The work of a vaccine is subject to the type of disease it is not a cure but a vaccine so spot the difference.

Also because the virus is highly transmissible your refusal of taking the vaccine can put others at risk especially the immunocompromised in the society because it is a highly transmissible infection you can transfer it to others thereby putting them at risk.

Studies and stats earlier brought out have shown that the vaccines have reduced the risk of infection and severity associated with the virus.
