Why is the International Handball Federation trying to kill the sport (along with all the world's best players)?
Some righteous Icelanders demand an answer
Handball World Cup Demands All Players be Triple Vaccinated, Tested Daily and Quarantine for Five Days if Positive
January 4, 2023
Is the International Handball Federation joking, asks Icelandic goalkeeper Björgvin Páll Gústavsson in a tweet on the Federation’s quarantine rules for the 2023 World Cup. Are you trying to destroy our sport?
According to the rules all players must be vaccinated and boosted, tested daily for COVID-19 infections and quarantined for five days in case the test comes out positive.
As Gústavsson points out, the results of the tournament would be severely skewed by this measure.
Gústavsson has written a letter to the Federation where he brings up questions on the legality of those measures, considering that Sweden and Poland, where the tournament will take place, have dropped all Covid restrictions.
Earlier, the manager of the Icelandic team complained about the Federation’s demands for vaccination, quoting Dr. Aseem Malhotra who has explained the risk the vaccination poses to young people. It’s been estimated that approximately the same number of sportspeople have died from heart attack in the field in 2021-22 as in the 38 years prior.
Icelandic online newspaper Fréttin sent the Federation an enquiry regarding the legality of its vaccination requirements over a month ago, but has received no reply.
Now that COVID-19 has truly become endemic with a mortality rate even lower than the flu, it looks as if some people simply cannot accept that simple fact.

Stop Press: The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified hundreds of safety signals for Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccines, according to monitoring results obtained by the Epoch Times. Statistics expert Professor Norman Fenton, reviewing the data, commented: “The probability that the true rate of the adverse events of the Covid vaccines is not higher than that of the non-Covid vaccines is essentially zero… The onus is on the regulators to come up with some other causal explanation for this difference.”

players need to quit, I can't get past that idea.
Or fans need to.
But really, the jig is up before this,
so why play sports when its still Ceasar's game
and all thumbs down?
The World Game Player Organization is requiring professional Scrabble players to have 4 SHOTS to enter tournaments!!! The "older" players refuse to play without mask and 4 SHOT mandates in place. This is insanity!!
