Rossi Has Covid

[westie]

Don't know how to react. Hopefully he has a simple case. Says he woke up feeling flu-like symptoms. Out for the next 2 races at least.

"Sadly this morning I woke up and wasn't feeling well. I felt particular weak and had a slight fever so I immediately called the doctor who gave me two tests. The result of the 'PCR quick test' was negative, just like the test I had already taken on Tuesday. But the second one, of which I was sent the result at 16:00 pm this afternoon, was sadly positive. Clearly very disappointed that I will have to skip the Aragon race."

Mods- you may put this wherever you want. I put it in the sink because that's where my friends are.

Not surprising. As time passes, more and more high profile people are going to get it, just based on the law of averages, particularly considering people like him are going out in the world routinely.

What is surprising me is how few of the higher profile people that have tested positive have even been hospitalized, much less died.

Heal up quick champ.

 

[HappyHighwayman]

That sucks.

Just read this. Seems his team had some issues last weekend with people missing because of possible covid. Not surprised the way some of his team don't seem to take the protocols too seriously.

Hope he recoups quickly and fully.

I wonder about the rest of the team and other teams/riders.
Hopefull good, but the riders have typically been allowed to be sans masks at times in the pits/ park ferme etc.

Some of the team members are shitty at wearing masks. Meaning noses exposed often.

He'll pull through this. He's young and healthy enough. It does suck though.

Exactly what I have seen repeatedly with his team. Maybe it's because they get the camera on them so much but it seems his team is the worst offender in the paddock.

Isnt Rona resurging across Europe right now?

 

[HappyHighwayman]

Dude is 4 days younger than me. Where did I go wrong?
Respect for his skill.

Maybe the doctor will call an actual doctor.

Naw, he'll just throw a leg out and ride around that shit.

(get better soon, living legend)

Dude is OLD his chances don't look great. :afm199









This was meant as humor

 

[ST Guy]

He'll be back in a week.

 

[Johndicezx9]

Wow... bummer. Hope he heals up with no residual effects.

He's very smart, has practically unlimited care resources and is exceptionally healthy otherwise.

Wally will be fine.

 

[Climber]

IT's telling that his first PCR test came back negative, even though he had it. People can be tested, show negative but be already contagious.

 

[Johndicezx9]

Don't forget, he smokes....

 

[danate]

Isn't his GF pregnant too?
