Process Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 5 players with covid in one week is very worrying. The good news is 4 of them are worthless. Bad news is it could be the start of an outbreak. Josh needs to be put into a bubble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 How times have changed. I remember when testing positive meant an incoming 4 game suspension. I miss the old days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure when the NFL is introducing the non-testing protocol for players who have been vaccinated; there are apparently 50+ players who tested positive today - are they all non-vaccinated, all showing symptoms or is the protocol not in place yet? 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldmanfan Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Omicron may very well be the dominant strain by the end of the week given its infectivity rate. This is going to wreck the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to wreck the league. Considering Omicron is supposedly much less severe symptom-wise than earlier strains, quite possible to have a lot of players positive with it going forward and just asymptomatic, leading to it not being found with the new testing protocols. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is TBC at this point. The initial data from South Africa looks promising but there are other variables at play there too so too early to make any firm conclusions.
