“We’re going to look at the greater good of everyone in our society, and you’re not part of that. We don’t care that you’re the number one tennis player in the world,” Lemon said, referring to Novak Djokovic, the Serbian professional tennis player who refused to get vaccinated and was not allowed to compete in Australia.
Lemon spoke highly of that country. “And good on them, because they are keeping their population and their citizens, people who want to be good citizens, they’re keeping them healthy and safe and alive, and not for someone who thinks that they can come in, do their own research, get Covid, spread it to other people, not wear masks, like the guy, the TV presenter said, and then infect all of us and keep all of us in the house, or from going to work, or from being able to do what they want to do.”
Australia suffered record numbers of deaths yesterday from the virus, despite its strict COVID and restrictions.
“That’s it. I’m done. I’m off of my soap box,” Lemon finished.
