Tennis, Covid 19 vaccine booing - I'm confused


BBC report

One assumes the crowd at this event was an approximate cross section of Australians... why did they boo at mention of the Covid 19 vaccine?

It is not compulsory to receive the vaccine and almost impossible to think it ever will be in this country.

Although I am one who will wait a while before seeking the vaccine I have no doubt all effort has been made to ensure it is as safe as possible.

I am seriously confused by this crowd reaction....

Australians boo at everything. Go to the football, they boo at the national anthem. They boo when any politician it mentioned. They boo if the beer is not cold enough. The difference here is just the media trying to create a story.

Watched the tennis last night and saw/heard the booing. It was when the Chair of Tennis Australia mentioned in her speech how the vaccinations worldwide would change how sport, and the way it is being attended, would change. The consensus here in the media is that the booing came from Dokovic supporters who is a known antivaxer.

Just goes to show, that you do not have to be financial disadvantaged, to be a yobbo
Because that is what the crowd sounded like to me, when they started booing

Some countries want a Covid-19 negative test certificate, before they will allow you in

I do not think that it is too far stretched, to say they will now probably want a vaccination certificate, before they allow you in

As already been said, Mr Dokovic is an anti-vaxxer
