Should Healthy, Vaccinated Pro-Athletes Who Test Positive Play On? Not yet, Experts Say.

The Washington Post reported:

Coronavirus cases have spiked this week across North American professional sports despite sky-high vaccination rates among players and staffs.

Sidelined stars, postponed games and disrupted seasons have doused any promise that vaccines would restore normalcy to the sports world. One month away from the NFL playoffs and barely a week out from the NBA’s annual Christmas Day showcase, both leagues are again mired in COVID-related obstacles.

Among the rash of players unavailable to play after testing positive, the vast majority are vaccinated and many are asymptomatic. So in a time of widely available vaccines and booster shots, would it be safe for sports leagues to allow vaccinated, asymptomatic players who test positive for the coronavirus to play in games?
