You need to be fully jabbed to get a Visa for Australia.
Novak Djokovic has had his Visa cancelled and been told to leave Australia.
He arrived in the country to defend his Australian Open title after being given a vaccine exemption.
The Serb, who is the defending champion in Melbourne, has not revealed his vaccination status, but has previously spoken out against vaccinations.
But Border Force officials have confirmed he failed to provide appropriate evidence to meet entry requirements.
Can't wait to see the episode of Border Patrol where Novak Djokovic gets refused entry to Australia in-between someone getting fined for bringing in chicken feet in their luggage and someone finding 300 scorpions being sent by post.

Djokovic is appealing the decision and his legal challenge is being held right now.
However, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison insisted Djokovic would receive no special treatment.
Mr Djokovic’s visa has been cancelled. Rules are rules, especially when it comes to our borders. No one is above these rules. Our strong border policies have been critical to Australia having one of the lowest death rates in the world from COVID, we are continuing to be vigilant.

He says Djokovic failed to provide sufficient proof to be allowed a Visa.
