Coronavirus (Covid19)

What could possibly go wrong?

More than likely a shedder and not contagious at all. Had the virus back in November.
In any case they are going into quarantine on arrival and no different to the many who fly whilst positive now

That’s what they’re saying, but......
It had better not go wrong

Tennys Sandgren was granted special permission to board a chartered flight from Los Angeles bound for the Australian Open in Melbourne on Wednesday (Thursday AEDT) despite testing positive for COVID-19 earlier in the week, Tennis Australia said.

Sandgren said on Twitter he had tested positive in November and returned another positive test on Monday and might not be able to board the flight, one of 15 carrying players and coaching staff to the first Grand Slam of the year.

However, he was able to board the flight with the help of Australian Open tournament director Craig Tiley.

"Wow I'm on the plane," he said.

"Craig Tiley is a wizard."

The world number 50, a quarter-finalist at Melbourne Park last year and in 2018, later tweeted: "My two tests were less than 8 weeks apart. I was sick in November, totally healthy now.

"There's not a single documented case where I would be contagious at this point."


A spokesperson for COVID-19 Quarantine Victoria said it was common among people who had previously tested positive to "shed viral fragments for some time – which can trigger another positive result".

Tennis Australia said in a statement the decision to allow Sandgren to fly had been made after a review by medical officials.

"In the case of Tennys Sandgren, who has self-disclosed that he previously tested positive in late November, his medical file had to be reviewed by Victorian health authorities," it said.

"Upon completion of that review he was cleared to fly."

Tennis Australia said any athlete who has recovered from COVID-19 must undergo a similar health review and earn "special clearance" from the authorities before travelling to Australia.

Some 1200 players and coaching staff are set to begin arriving from Thursday for the tournament,running from February 8-21, which was delayed by three weeks.

Victoria, once Australia's COVID-19 hotspot, has said it will impose the strongest protocols seen at any tennis tournament for those flying in.

Players and staff must isolate for two weeks before they can take part in warm-up events at Melbourne Park.

Tennis Australia said players would undergo a more rigorous testing schedule ahead of the Australian Open than most returning travellers.

Super Powers - no.

Fat Guts - Yes.

Finally the vaccine we all need.

Initial testing showed that the vaccine was weak and watery and wouldn’t provide full efficacy unless the patient ate a bag of lemons at the same time he was being injected

I thought it was an externally administered flavour enhancer.

I was thinking: “for $2.75m I was prepared to take the risk”

**** knows what the Vic Govt were thinking banning their citizens whilst letting these people in.

Wouldn’t matter what he did

Many of them refer to him as “our beloved leader”
It doesn’t matter which side he’s on; referring to any politician as that is sick

Yeah that as well. Dumb as shit. Well piss off back home then and don't play tennis. If they make it past the first round it's like an instant $100k in prize money lol.

At the moment it's the only major tournament in the world happening in the first few months. Seriously, suck it up.
