French No 1 Gael Monfils has revealed his withdrawal from recent tournaments is due to a probable adverse reaction to his third dose of coronavirus vaccine. MailOnline has more.
The Frenchman has not played since a one-sided loss to Swede Mikael Ymer in Montpellier three weeks ago and will not represent his country in Davis Cup next week.
Monfils, 35, is hoping he will be able to return for the Masters tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami next month.
Writing on Twitter, Monfils said: “Hello everyone, I wanted to give you some news following my recent withdrawals from tournaments. I suffered a small health glitch (probably following my third dose of vaccine).
“On the advice of my doctor, I decided to take some time to rest. So unfortunately I will not be able to play the Davis Cup next week. I hope to be able to return in the United States.”
He is the second French player to be forced off court after a suspected adverse reaction to a coronavirus vaccine.
Jeremy Chardy, now ranked 138, has not played a match since the U.S. Open last summer.
Novak Djokovic, who is playing his first tournament of the season in Dubai this week, is the only unvaccinated player in the men’s top 100.
Maybe Djoko isn’t such a loon after all.

Enough of parroting MSM news releases about the vaccine. Nobody here cares!
If we did, we’d be reading the MSM, not coming here! Just stop it, please!
“Despite the success of its vaccine rollout”
In what way is it a success?
Please, can you stop copy/pasting these congratulatory articles verbatim from pro-vaccine MSM websites with little commentary. I don’t think it’s adding anything to the site.
You are spot on. The vaccine is nothing to be celebrated. For most people it’s completely unnecessary and for some, proving fatal. The logistics in delivering it to so many is to be applauded, but that’s where it ends. Another epic government waste of money together with track and trace and the twice weekly testing kits! And let’s remember we were going to be released from lockdown when the vulnerable had been vaccinated – absolute piffle.
No the money isn’t being wasted at all, it’s being transferred to exacty the right people
What vaccines?
They are gene therapies.
I’d imagine that few people even know about the Yellow Card reporting scheme which means that the true number of adverse effects could well be significantly higher.
Exactly. Mrs Dent has had the AZ vaccine and she was not told about it, for sure. And was not told about any likely side-effects either. Really really shoddy.
If she’d bothered to read the information sheet provided with the jab she’d have known all about yellow card and the side effects.
Thats why its given to everyone receiving a vaccination…
When the population is being given a pharmaceutical product which is still in stage 3 clinical trials, has not been tested against any other commonly used medication, and only has emergency approval to be used on the public, the authorities should not be relying on small print to inform people of both the side-effect risks and how they can report these.
There are occasional mentions of the Yellow Card reporting scheme by Daily Mail commenters but, as you rightly say, very few people know about it.
I asked about it at a vacc centre and was told it was for use by the staff at the centre for reporting issues that occurred whilst a person was there – ie for the 15 minutes after the vaccination. I was not impressed.
Norman, please report them to the MHRA. These Harold Shipman wannabes have got to be bought back from the psychopathic episodes they’re experiencing.
If all those deaths and adverse effects were recorded in the vaccination centre 15 mins after the jab it would a monumental scandal. The way it is, they knew it could be all put down to coincidentlidied in the weeks after.
“Please, can you stop copy/pasting these congratulatory articles verbatim from pro-vaccine MSM websites with little commentary. “
Exactly. Is the aim to get back into the good(?) graces of the bastards who were once ‘friends’? Because this is getting quite pathetically servile.
I have seen no wide-angle article looking in a balanced way at the snake-oil benefits and detriments, the necessity of them for a pretty ordinary virus, the real-time absolute risk reduction, the fundamental ethical issues, and the cheaper and safer prophylactic alternatives.
All I see – as remarked – is a flow of repetitions of the propaganda line.
WTF???
You are right, it doesn’t other than illustrate the recklessness of this government to gamble with peoples lives with experimental gene therapies.
WELL SAID. Too bloody right thank you for pointing out the number of deaths it’s a scandal. And all LS does is repeat self congratulatory headlines from MSM. Not what I visit this site for. Need to be looking more into those deaths and the 500,000 + adverse reactions to the “vaccines”.
The vaccine nonsense just carries on the big lie. That we are presented with a virus so unlike anything we’ve seen before that we have to throw all our plans out the window and put the entire country under house arrest for a year. Rush out a vaccine still in early testing, give it emergency licensing and push for it to be given to children.
The vaccine nonsense is worse than the lockdown nonsense in my opinion.
To give these unlicensed, experimental injections to children is simply evil.
… but the main issue is that – even if they worked – they are unnecessary for any medical reason.
Basically, any doctor giving these to minors is in breach of his/her code of ethics and long-established protocols.
If LS is short of material and is considering linking to a Guardianista piece, how about interviewing people who have been harmed by the lockdown or vaccine and holding the interviews in reserve until you have a space that needs filling? The fakemedia have used ‘case’ stories as propaganda for more than a year now. Who knows if their fearmongering cases are even real? We could counter with a few truthful heart-rending stories for honest emotional impact.
And?
Hope they all got a sticker and a lollipop.
“leading the way” “rollout” “success”…
These are all babyish ways of describing what has happened.
A sceptics site should be asking some serious questions of the massvax programme:
I think they’re planning on using their new UK Gene Therapy Labs quite a lot
An excellent summary of the main issues. Knee-jerk “vaccines are good” attitudes are just lazy, dangerous ways of thinking about public health.
I would add the lack of informed consent given the atmosphere of hysteria and the deliberate distortion and obfuscation of any useful, meaningful information about covid. A lot of focus has been put on the possible dangers of the vaccines, rightly, but more fundamental to a reasoned decision is what dangers they supposedly save you from – and if you can’t easily quantify those, you’re working in the dark.
I am happy to say that I am in the other 50%.
Up yours, Dungford.
93 Israeli doctors have written in the Israel National News, that children should not be vaccinated as the long term effects are not known, re growth, fertility etc
And some (mainstream) news site published this? Wow.

When did Westminster EVER do anything positive for the good people of Wales? Dear God, I dread to think what this already struggling population are going to do.
Just watch as more capitalists sweep in to take their beautiful farms and amazing land from under the debilitated citizens.
Wales gets 106% of average UK public expenditure per head, since Wales’ per capita GDP is much lower than England’s; this represents a subsidy from English taxpayers to fund Socialism in Wales. The subsidy to scots is much larger. Scotland gets per hear 122% of the average uk, Scotland would be mad to choose independence, I hope they do so that there is more money for Wales and NI. If England wants an empire she has to pay the bribes, else we’d dump England and chose the EU, highest bidder usually takes it, as a rule.

Yawn f.ing yawn (speaking as one who is English in region)
this is very good news to reach this milestone.
No it bloody isn’t.
Please explain why it’s good news, and then go through OKUK’s post above and offer a point by point rebuttal of it.
I’m still looking for some study that proves that the rollouts of the vaccine are a primary cause of the dramatic plunges in cases, hospitalizations and deaths observed in most countries and U.S. states since the virus “peak” around January 12. The fact is these plunges began before 98 percent of the population had been “fully vaccinated.” In Alabama, daily new cases surpassed 5,400 on 1-12-21 and are now averaging around 300/day (a recent day saw 112 new cases). This represents a decline in new cases of about 95 percent. Even today, only about 15 percent of our state’s population has been “fully vaccinated” (and most of those who have received both doses are much older – the cohort of the population that does not interact with many other people.
I think it had run it’s course. I was looking at the Our World Data covid data the other day and compared UK and Portugal for deaths per million population. Their trajectory for late 2020 to now mirrors our own in both rapid increase followed by rapid decline.
Then compare the same two countries for vacinnation rates and you’ll see a massive difference. I just don’t buy the vaccine success story.
When the next winter flu season hits late 2021 it’s going to be interesting to see if the vaccinated folks end up like the poor ferrets they tested the last mRNA coronavirus vaccines on.
What happened to the ferrets? Why did they die?
My understanding is that until C19 these mRNA vaccines had only ever been utilised in animal trials and had always resulted in death.
Your understanding is completely incorrect.
As can be easily shown with a 5 minute glance at the peer reviewed trial data and published articles before that.
Also, AZ isnt mRNA based.
The virus is/was clearly “seasonal.” All the NPIs had nothing to do with any of the metrics. We could have had no NPIs and the numbers would have been the same, or had the most stringent measures and they would have been the same.
LS is sounding more and more like a vaccine fanzine every day. Maybe I’m assuming too much in that I thought the average lockdown sceptic would also cast a sceptical eye over these rushed gene therapies being enthusiastically pushed by governments. Heck, I’dve thought most sensible people would be sceptical about ANYTHING a government was enthusiastic about! Seems not.
Unfortunately it took the Russians centuries of this to develop that kind of scepticism.
Baaaa!
The UK Column (youtube channel & website) are doing excellent reporting on the harmful effects of the vaccines!

Hopefully Drakeford Jnr will be jabbed and that will be the end of his rapier wit
