Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic, ranked first in the world, expressed his opposition to submitting a compulsory vaccine against the new Corona virus before the start of the game's resumption, considering that traveling "is the number one challenge" for the players.
Djokovic’s statement came during a video call with several Serb athletes through his Facebook account on the occasion of Easter, according to the Eastern Calendar. “We have to travel and therefore I think the number one challenge is mobility,” he said.
Djokovic was speaking from Spain, where he was forced to stay with his family due to quarantine following the outbreak of the new Corona virus.
"I am in a state of uncertainty. How can travel be handled? Personally, I am not with vaccines. I would not prefer someone to force me to have a vaccine in order to travel. I have to take The decision in this regard. At the moment, I am against this, and I do not know whether it will change, "before he clarified," But about what vaccine do we talk as long as it is not present at the moment? "
The Serbian said that the competitions will not resume activities until September, October, "although tennis has been officially suspended until at least mid-July."
"He will officially return to the season when everyone becomes 100 percent certain that the public will be able to come, there are no risks and people have become resistant to the virus, and this takes time," he said.
He concluded by saying that, until resumption of activity, sessions may be required that require travel to only one country or region.
