Angry about proposed travel ban exemption for footballers

[OATEK]

Apparently some of them have said they can’t have a flu vac due to “religious reasons”. Hopefully the children are having vaccinations and then are able to go to school. But what sort of religious reasons could there be not to have vaccinations?

I was thinking they would be the same group who would not allow transfusions to save their children.

SA Health refused to give the SA AFL teams access to modified quarantine restrictions to play football interstate. I wonder of the Crows recent event made that decision much easier.

W.A. has also continued to refuse to change its quarantine rules for the AFL - saying the same rules apply to everyone.

 

[get me outta here]

The Jehovah's Witnesses do that - no blood transfusions to anyone, maybe others too, and maybe some they made up recently. Where does it say 'thou shalt not have a vaccination' I wonder. It just encourages the anti vac idiots.

I might be wrong and I was going to post the same group but then I had second thoughts and I don't think that this is necessarily the case. The Jehovahs Witnesses I believe, forbid blood products as representations of the body of Christ. That's all.

Google suggests Church of Christ And Christian Scientists are anti vac because prayers to God will suffice. Umm.

I recall seeing an old movie (Life For Ruth, aka Walk In The Shadow) late one night on ABC.
Worth a watch and it's available on youtube.

"When John Harris's daughter is badly injured in an boating accident, the hospital tells him that she will need an urgent blood transfusion. Due to his religious beliefs Harris refuses permission, and the child dies. When the inquest clears Harris of all blame, the doctor in charge of the case tries to get the police to press manslaughter charges against Harris."

Some of you people are funny... you uphold the “rights” of some groups with the right hand, while throwing a punch at other groups with the left. Whatever aligns with your personal views and bents.

Meh, you don’t have to go far from AFF itself to read about some members galavanting around the country on a jolly all in the name of “work”... can’t see any of you cracking up about that now. Hypocrisy much...?

Im sorry, I'm not sure what you are referring to here? Can't happen in SA, we are pretty much locked in. Hence the issue with the footballers. WA, QLD and Tasmania are the same.

How is it that footy players with Instagram Influencer wives have full sleeve and body tattoos, repeated knee, hip etc reconstructions, use unregulated “performance enhancing” peptides but refuse a simple flu injection on not wanting to pollute their bodies with vaccines?

So this is truly weird. After not giving Christian Scientists any thought in my 60 plus years of life until yesterday, tonight we randomly flicked on to a Foxtel Comedy show featuring Ellen de Generis and low and behold, she was raised as a Christian Scientist and thus anti Doctor and Anti Vaxxer as a child. .

I see Cartwright has got around his ban with a Drs Certificate about past adverse reactions. Funny how this never came up in the WAG's feed along the way.

I can understand that some people have fears of adverse reactions, as an Aunt of Mrsoatek died from such a reaction, although that was many decades ago (not egg based I think, but from a mouse perhaps?)!

But egg allergies are a not considered a concern according to ASCIA, and from what I have read serious reactions are quite rare. Funny that there seem to be so many bad reactions amongst a relatively small group of footballers.

Be interesting to see what happens if a COVID19 vaccine becomes available I hope the league aren’t as weak on giving players a pass.

How about they be forbidden from having a covid vaccine seeing they have signed an avidavid affidavit they are allergic to vaccines

CoronaCheck: Does the flu shot increase your chances of getting COVID-19?

As a number of NRL players were stood down for refusing a flu shot, one of their partners posted a claim on Instagram about the vaccination increasing the chances of catching COVID-19.

Affidavit

Thanks

Isn't it always the case the spell checker cuts in when you don't want it to, and then other times sits silently in the background and lets it embarrass yourself

 

[Anna]

In an attempt to be informative not embarrassing - affidavits are used in court proceedings. If there aren't court proceedings, it was much more likely a stat dec.

I signed (far too) many an Affadavit of Death as a JP, back in the day. Often the estate finished up not requiring probate, and the matter rested there.
