Tim Henman believes Novak Djokovic will be able to play at Wimbledon this year even if he remains unvaccinated.

Fixed it for you.

Will be placing you in the ignore list.

The point stands about people from the sub-continent who don't want to get vaccinated and based on the figures below you can see why.

For each country I will do simple maths, deaths/number of covid cases to give the mortality rate

India - 511k/42.8m = 0.012%
Pakistan - 29.8k/1.5m = 0.02%
Bangladesh - 28.9k/1.93m= 0.015%

India 55% fully vaxxed
Pak 42.8% fully vaxxed
Bang 36.3% fully vaxxed

Based on these figures you can see why they are in no rush to get the vaccine. It'll probably be even lower when you consider the number of people who are asymptomatic and don't bother testing.

Just to add vax card fraud is rampant in some of those countries, there are plenty of articles circulating about people buying vax cards without actually getting the vax, demonstrating how seriously they take it.

Nice story you made up there.

A person can choose to believe what they want. Here is a perfect example of how far the pro vaxxers will go, if a relative they know dies from COVID it must be true, if someone else says anything else it's made up. I will go down the only route which any of us should and it's facts.

Facts like a global mortality rate of 0.14 (5.89mill deaths / 420m total cases) are a good starting point. That rate would probably be closer to 0 if we factored in the normal of asymptomatic people who don't bother to test. Or even symptomatic people who don't test.

Good we need Novak back

But that’s another lie. It was widely rumoured that 90% of hospitalisations were unvaccinated people but according to the ONS and the BMJ 61% of those in intensive care are unvaxxed. Yes that is disproportionately higher number of unvaccinated in hospitals but they do not account for all. A huge number of vaccinated people are still in hospitals.

So once again you are exaggerating like many others to make your point. Clearly clearly based on the stats from the authorities it’s not that effective.

I guess you just signed up to agitate - good luck with that and your nonsense. Most people are vaxxed, yet most in the hospital are unvaxxed. Pointless to engage with people who want to talk about anything and everything else. Enjoy your day of misinforming and being obtuse.

Nonsense? I have given you facts and made very solid assumption from those facts. If 61% of the hospitalized covid cases are unvaxxed, then 39% are vaxxed. Which therefore gives us 195000x0.39=7605. That is a lot of people being hospitalized with at least the double jab.

But I agree with you, let's close this topic - it's boring.

Why on earth is Tim Henman the one being asked about this?

Seriously, he knows no more about this than any of us. It makes sense to ask former pros about things they might have unique insight on - like tennis, or tennis shots, or tennis tournaments - but I don't think Tim Henman knows more than any random brit does about british national politics.

 

[smash hit]

I don't think it was in doubt, restrictions are all but non existant in the UK. RG will also be avsilable to him, which is likely why he was able to make the grand gesture of missing tournaments in order to stand by his principles. Why wasn't he prepared to stand by those same principles for the AO.

Here's something you didn't know: both cases are considered anecdotal evidence, which nobody but antivaxxer morons take seriously.
Did you notice how it's only antivaxxers posting about "my uncle Billy-Bob..."?

"Henman, who is on the Wimbledon committee".
