Fifa appeals to all footballers worldwide. You should get vaccinated against the corona virus, is the message.
The world football association Fifa is in favor of vaccinations against the corona virus. A statement said on Sunday evening: “We advocate vaccinations against Covid-19 and support the position of the World Health Organization: Safe, fair and equitable access to vaccines is crucial in all countries. Players should not be given priority access to vaccines.”
This was preceded by the decision of the British government that fully vaccinated players did not have to go to hotel quarantine after returning from the upcoming World Cup qualifying matches, even if the location of the international matches is on the so-called red list.
Fifa welcomed this courtesy. In the last international break, the old rule on the island caused a stir. Several players from South American countries missed Premier League games after their return from the national team because they had to serve the mandatory quarantine.
