Several NBA players have tested sure for COVID-19 a second time, per report
As the NBA grapples with how to navigate a season during a global pandemic minus a bubble in place, there are multiple players in the beleaguered who are testing positive again for COVID-19 once previously already contracting the virus, ESPN's Brian Windhorst and Zach Lowe. This is just the another concern for the league after having to postpone now four games in the past week due to multiple outbreaks on certain teams, including the Orlando Magic at Boston Celtics game previously scheduled for Wednesday.
It's unclear how long immunity lasts for a populate who has previously tested positive for coronavirus, as the CDC says that reinfections are to be imagined, but considered rare. It's unknown which players have tested sure again for the virus, as that demand is confidential per HIPAA regulations, but some players who have previously famed to have tested positive for the virus, like Kevin Durant and Bam Adebayo, have been placed in isolation this season out of precaution based on a possible cessation contact with someone who has the virus.
Since last summer, the NBA has reported over 100 distinct COVID-19 tests in the league, according to ESPN, and that number is required to be higher since teams weren't testing players during the entirety of the three-month hiatus from March to June. There is also reportedly some pains regarding how many players actually had the virus early on in the pandemic, as there were more reported false positives as testing wasn't as widely available or reliable. If there were players who registered a false distinct test early on in the pandemic, and then tested distinct again recently, it's possible that this would be their beneficial time contracting the virus.
If anything, all of the interrogate the NBA is dealing with just magnifies how much we level-headed don't know about how this virus operates.
