He had followed all the rules apparently. He had been granted an exception reviewed by two independent panels as required by Australian authorities. Decision backed by the Victorian Dep. of Health. The process is blind so supposedly the authorities didn’t know it was Djokovic behind the application. He boarded the plane with the papers in order:

- rblatz 5y agoThe state of Victoria doesn’t set the rules for who can come into the country. They have no authority to grant entry to the country.
- dmarcos 5y agoMy point is that he had followed the stablished process to request an exemption and it was granted. He didn’t get special treatment because the application process is blind.
- rblatz 5y agoIt was an exemption to State Covid-19 rules, not an exemption to enter the country. Him and his team are purposefully muddying the waters with this exemption in an attempt to bully the country into letting him in, even though he's violated their laws and is not following their regulations.
- jokethrowaway 5y agoI would expect a process reviewed by the Victorian Department of Health to have enough authority to make a medical exemption.
- dmarcos 5y agoThere are no exemptions to enter the country without vaccination? He followed the wrong protocol? Is there a different path he should have followed?
