Whiting89 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Good for south wood but this just proves USA is a freaking mess with covid and now I see why it’s out of control there are so many exceptions and loopholes no one knows what’s going on. you have the have and have nots.

Mayo77 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Awesome for southwood but wouldn't it had made more sense to test 1st then say you aren't playing? Little unfair to tell a team on a Tuesday that they have friday off then oops we can play tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southwood is now testing their varsity players and will be able to play Friday if all tests come back negative. Does anyone have any information / details on the testing service they used?

My understanding is this player tested positive but they suspected it may not be valid so they did a different test and he's now tested negative. The first test was a false positive. Many of these tests were developed very quickly and not completely validated so there will be false results. My question is how do they not know the first test was accurate and the second test is not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayo77 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I'm happy for those southwood kids. Watched them once this year and have hell of team but either health department or school dropped the ball on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrcsage Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Yeah, I don’t like the public announcement of canceling and then being back in. First announcement probably should’ve been “canceled, pending Covid test results.” But I’m also going to guess that a whole bunch of parents got involved and were not going to allow their kids’ season to be over. My guess is this won’t be the only time this happens in the next 6 weeks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jets Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 So does this mean that “contact tracing” isn’t a thing anymore as long as you test negative?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes because playing football has resulted in SO many kids catching the sniffles. Has there been a documented case ANYWHERE in the state of Indiana this fall, of any player catching zee virus by playing football? Anyone?

I would be truly interested in any challenge to DJ’s...err....Phil Lee’s observations that anyone might be able to specifically document. Even more so, I’d be interested as to any of those cases that exceeded a flu, at worst, or a common cold. In the case of some here, I’d expect some REALLY hard documentation....since some seem to revel in COVID....and the subsequent politics unfortunately surrounding it.
