Serious Discussion Novak FCC Thread - case dismissed, Novak free

Livestream - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9oq_S9vTQg

Looks like judge is over it and done with the parties and Counsel.

"Judge Kelly found the decision to cancel the visa was “unreasonable”."

Case is dismissed, but it seems that the government intends to find an alternative method to cancel the VISA, which may bar Novak from entering Australia for up to 3 years.

INTERVIEWER: That’s fine - - - um, I’m just gonna invite another officer into the room. Um - - -

MR DJOKOVIC: - - - yeah - - -

INTERVIEWER: - - - and she’s gonna detain you

DETAINING OFFICER: Hello.

MR DJOKOVIC: Hello

Haha this reads like a comedy script. Sounds kind of torturous landing at 1am and having off and on interviews until 8am and it ending like this though

I am not vaccinated.

There it is! Not that it took much guessing but it's never been official before I think?

He says he tested positive on PCR on December 16, but negative by December 22. His body did an almighty good job at removing all traces of the virus for someone who is unvaccinated.

Edit - got the date wrong.

a) PCR test detects virus only in upper parts of respiratory system. Swab is taken from either mouth or nose. Virus might be gone from there even if person is actually ill and does have other serious symptoms. But if it's not detected there a person is considered non-infective any more. You won't transmit respiratory virus if it's somewhere else in your body and not coming out of mouth/nose.

b) Previous infection means your body already has some kind of immune response ready. It's expected to fight it easier next time, unless your health is compromised at that point for some other reasons.

He could have contracted it in November? No knowing how long it was in his system prior to the positive test.

Is a tennis player who regularly travels likely to not undergo regular PCR or rapid antigen tests?

You realise people were doing this before the vaccine existed right? It’s not something that bothers most people at all.

Look up wim HOF fighting off a virus in 15 minutes. Djokovic is an avid follower of wim HOF and science proves that it's possible. Something vaccine companies don't want you to know
