Joshua Kimmich of Bayern Munich as a model for Novak Djokovic

Last October, after Joshua Kimmich of Bayern Munich was revealed to have not been gotten a coronavirus vaccination, he insisted in an interview after a match that he was neither a "corona denier" nor against vaccinations; rather, he had concerns about the lack of long-term studies of the new types of vaccinations used for coronavirus. After he first had to be quarantined because of exposure to teammate Niklas Süle and then contracted Covid-19 himself, Kimmich had trouble breathing and expressed his regret at his decision not to be vaccinated. Kimmich could serve as a model for Novak Djokovic about how to admit to a mistake without losing face as a result. (Andrew Shields, #111words, 9 January 2022)
