[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An '04 boy tested positive a day after a scrimmage with another Arlington '05 team.  The club notified both teams and both teams have been quarantined from all practices, training, scrimmages and games.  Neither team is playing in games for 2 weeks.  The club has acted very responsibly.

The encouraging news is, no other players on either team have had symptoms or tested positive.  This would actually be very good news, as to the low transmission rate through a soccer match.[/quote]

That sounds very responsible and reasonable. Good for them![/quote]

That does sound good. Trying to imagine a scenario, though, in which my kid would play in a scrimmage one day and then get a test the next day. Symptoms first appear the next day and parents hustle the kid right out the door for a test after an hour or two of fever? (Seems unlikely.) Or if the kid was waiting for results (and received them the day after the scrimmage, rather than being tested the day after the scrimmage), the kid should not have been playing while waiting.[/quote]

I have no idea what happened.  But how do you know he did play?  My assumption would be that he likely didn't play but that both teams were quarantined anyway.[/quote]

There are a few places around here that do rapid tests. He could have woken up feeling sick. They could have been notified someone they were in contact with tested positive like a relative or friend. They could have gotten a call from a contact tracer that said he was at a camp where someone else tested positive  or working at a store where someone tested positive. Lots of possibilities. None involve any fault by the child or parents.[/quote]
