Novak Djokovic granted exemption from vaccination requirement to defend Australian Open title

Australians have expressed their anger over news related to the participation of Serbian tennis player, Novak Djokovic, in the Australian Open, under a medical exemption from measures to obtain the Corona vaccine.

All players and staff in the tournament are required to have the vaccine as a condition of participation, or to obtain an exemption granted by an independent panel of experts.

Tournament organizers said the champion, who is seeking to defend his title, was not given special treatment.

However, Australians, some of whom still cannot travel between states internally, or outside the country, have criticized officials, politicians and Djokovic himself.
