You sure about the 10 days? I think he can be tested immediately and 2 consecutive negatives (taken at least 24 hrs apart)... he's back. Reporting up here is he's already taken multiple 'rapid' tests since his positive test results came in yesterday. Those rapid tests ...all negative. Those tests are not part of the protocol MLB to get a guy cleared. ..but my understanding is he could be playing again in about 3 days IF he gets the 2 tests done in next day or so and assuming a 48-72 hr turnaround on the results.It did not take long for a MBL player to test positive and have to sit for ten days. So, the Nats will be without Juan Soto for ten days, then he has to have two consecutive negative tests. This should be something the P5 conferences watch closely. It will be very difficult (perhaps impossible) to keep college athletes separated from the student body at their schools.
You are correect. The injured list is changed to ten days but does not include players who get COVID positive tests. Two legit negative tests ar required.You sure about the 10 days?

Not to hijack the thread talking about MLB and Soto... but totally concur on what you said here. He'd had 4-ish negative test leading up to his Tuesday sample/test (the positive...results came in Thurs). MLB tests each player every other day. He's asymptomatic... so, you really hope that indicates a false positive; but obviously, you have to wait for follow-on tests to confirm that. Something to watch is if other Nats now have some positive tests. Even if it is only a few, it will be pretty bad. The Nationals leadership (GM and Manager) have been vocal about how the team has been doing everything to adhere to distancing among players/staff just for this scenario... limit spread if it shows up in the organization.You are correect.

If the first positive was legit, he will not be back in 2-3 days, even if asymptomatic.

Isn’t the lab for sociology a bar, McDonalds and a 7-eleven? Maybe for a Dookie it’sDuke University will only allow freshman and sophomores to live on campus in the Fall. That includes student-athletes. Upperclassmen will only be allowed on campus for access to the library and labs. This will be interesting as upper class athletes will be wandering up and down 9th Street every night. I can imagine social distancing will be gone by September.
Duke will only allow freshmen and sophomores in campus housing for the fall semester
As universities nationwide struggle with reopening amid the coronavirus pandemic, Duke University will only allow first- and second-year students to use campus housing for the fall 2020 semester, according togreensboro.com
If part of the delays are for the conference leadership to watch the NFL, NBA, and MLB to see if their plans are working then the announcements today that games are being delayed because of COVID-19 after one weekend of actual games doesn't look good.
This goes to you, other swarmers, and the media.
I get that. I wasn't saying that the MLB season is over. I was trying to ask if this can put a damper on the plans the conferences have. I don't believe the conferences will have the ability to test every player and coach as often as MLB does. As they are putting plans together and monitoring the ability of professional teams with much more money handle the issue, will issues such as the Marlins' outbreak give them pause?
With a tough set of rules, MLB and the NBA are already having issues. It is hard for me to see how we get a full season of football at GT.I get ya. I think the conferences are gonna be fluid throughout the season. There will probably be cfb games that will need to be cancelled as well. I’m thinking they’re not going to have a hard rule on anything, we can only hope.
CFB camps should be starting up this week or next week and conferences do not have any plans in place. I think the hope for football is slipping away.With a tough set of rules, MLB and the NBA are already having issues. It is hard for me to see how we get a full season of football at GT.
