Beijing time, January 10: Recently, the most concerned event in the international sports world, tennis player Djokovic Djokovic, whose visa to enter Australia to participate in the Australian Open competition, has the latest news. After a one-day hearing, the judge overturned the USCIS decision to revoke Djokovic's visa on the grounds that the USCIS's revocation of the visa was flawed. However, the verdict also released a number of previously questionable details, Djokovic after re-infecting the new crown on December 16, he attended public events for two consecutive days on the 17th and 18th without any protection, and the test turned negative on December 22. This also confirms the previous speculation about Djokovic's "poisoning", as a public figure with world influence, although he won the lawsuit, but in the context of the global pandemic, this behavior must be condemned and spurned by the public. Today we will talk about this problem.
Last Wednesday, world-number one tennis player Djokovic traveled to Australia for the australian Open, the first Grand Slam tournament of the year, when immigration officials cancelled his visa on the grounds that the documents submitted by his visa application were not qualified and sent to a government-designated hotel for quarantine pending repatriation. Djokovic then filed a lawsuit in the Federal Court of Victoria on the grounds of irregularities on the part of the government, asking the authorities to revoke the decision to cancel the visa and allow Djokovic to enter this year's Australian Open competition. At Thursday's first hearing, the judge accepted Djokovic's application to allow him to stay in the quarantine hotel until a verdict was handed down.
After several hours of trial, at 3:15 p.m. Beijing time, the court continued to hold the trial, Judge Anthony Kelly read out the verdict, and the government was ordered to pay the tennis players and release them within 30 minutes. Djokovic's passport and personal belongings must also be returned to him. Judge Kelly said the decision to cancel Djokovic's visa under section 116 of the Immigration Act was "unreasonable" because on January 6 at 5.20am he was told he could respond to officials by 8.30am. The decision to cancel Djokovic's permit occurred before the deadline, at 7:42 a.m. Judge Kelly said this deprived Djokovic of time that could have been used to "consult with others" and give further comments on "why his visa should not be cancelled". After the judge's ruling, christopher Tran, a barrister for the federal government, said the government would abide by the decision — but immigration minister Alex Hawke would consider "whether to exercise personal power to cancel." The judge said that if this power is really exercised, Deyo will not be able to come to Australia for the next three years, but will still have the option to continue to appeal.
The results were announced and the parties reacted differently, after which the Tribunal published the evidence submitted by the parties. As can be seen from the parties presented on the evidence, Djokovic personally admitted to never being vaccinated and was infected with COVID-19 twice on June 2020 and December 16, 2012. His application for a "medical exemption" to enter Australia to participate in the Australian Open competition is also based on the fact that nearly 6 people are infected. From the documents released by the court, we can see that Djokovic was tested for the new crown virus as a close contact at noon on December 16, and got a positive result that night. Djokovic did not choose to stay home after being diagnosed again, but attended several public events indoors on December 17 and 18 without any protection. This included a meet-and-greet with many children.
In the face of the global COVID-19 pandemic, Djokovic, as an influential public figure, has repeatedly challenged the bottom line of epidemic prevention. At the beginning of the outbreak, he chose to train at a stadium where practice was prohibited in violation of the Spanish authorities' epidemic prevention regulations. Subsequently, without implementing epidemic prevention measures, he organized exhibition matches in Serbia and Croatia, causing dozens of people, including himself, to gather infections, and then threw the pot to Dimitrov. Djokovic then repeatedly publicly declared his opposition to vaccination, sparking confrontation over the public health event. He said: "I personally oppose vaccinations, I don't want to be forced to get vaccinated for the sake of travel and competition, if it is enforced? I have to make a decision, I have my own opinion on the matter and I don't know if those ideas will change at some point. "I need to travel a lot, and some people say that for those of us who travel a lot, we have to get a vaccine that has yet to be universalized." It is therefore necessary to point out that at this time we do not have enough information to prove that this is wrong. We don't know if there will be new measures, what we will do, whether we can decide for ourselves whether the vaccine will be used or not. His wife, Elena, also said that vaccination does not seem to be the best way to go now, "I am not a scientist, but I hope to choose a way that is best for my body, and I will continue to wait and see, because the importance of this matter is self-evident and will affect all of us." ”
From the documents submitted by the court today, we can see that he concealed the fact that he was infected with the epidemic and did not accept quarantine but attended many public events, which is a typical "poisoning" behavior. Although foreign epidemic prevention measures are not comparable to those of China, it is mandatory to self-isolate after infection with asymptomatic or mild diseases. It is absurd for a world-ranked athlete to make such a move, and such an act is criminally detained in China. The explosion of court documents has also attracted more condemnation on social media. In addition to some "chicken powder" who are still insisting on washing the floor, most people have also expressed condemnation and condemnation of Djokovic's "poisoning" behavior. His performance deserves to be spurned and attacked by the public.
This evening, Beijing time, Djokovic happened through social media and posted a photo taken at rodrawall stadium, saying that he has begun training to prepare for the Australian Open. Although the Australian Home Secretary currently has the power to cancel Djokovic's visa, the current situation is very likely to be his participation in the Australian Open. It remains to be seen what outcome Djokovic's entry will lead to, which has caused chaos in Melbourne after today's trial results were announced, with local police forced to use pepper spray to disperse the troublesome crowd.
Despite Djokovic's success on the tennis court, his anti-intellectual behavior and participation in public events knowing that he is infected with the epidemic and not protected should be spurned by everyone, and such a public figure should be condemned by the public.
