[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 739766, member: 2426"] That is obvious since he now published a story indicating that the school now said there were three positives during the two weeks that the original story said had none. I have nothing against Ken. My comments might read as though I do, but I don't intend to sound that way. I am a stickler for details. If the "spokesman" was either named or in a named position, it would have added credibility to the story. If the story included more details, such as: There were no positive test results received between August 10th and August 24th, which included tests which were collected between August 5th and August 21st.: That would have provided more detail. The statement in the original story was "From a two-week period starting Aug. 10 through Monday, there were no Yellow Jackets athletes who had tested positive for the coronavirus". Does that mean that no positive results were received for samples collected starting August 10th through August 24th? Maybe a positive result was received on August 12th, but it was collected on August 9th. Does it mean that no positive results were received August 10th to 24th? Maybe a positive result was received on August 9th. How long does it take to receive the results? If it takes a day or two then a positive sample could have been collected on the 22nd, 23rd, or 24th and the positive result wouldn't have been known when Ken got the information. I don't know where Ken go the information, which makes judging accuracy of the information difficult. I don't know if the August 10th date signifies the start date of samples taken or results received. I don't know how long it takes to get the results. I doubt it takes 5 or 6 days, but I don't know. With all that uncertainty the two week period could actually only signify 8 or 9 days of no positive samples collected. [/QUOTE]
