Your profile picture says it all!

 

There are still 6 days before nordic combined, so maybe there is a chance for him.

Translated by Google:

 

Riiber must be in isolation and deliver two negative samples before he can get out. If he does not have symptoms, the Chinese authorities will consider the matter after ten days.

 

Whoops..

Moral of the story? Everyone should buy a private plane?

Fuck the pandemic.

And the fact that even with a much less dangerous variant we're still in the 'positive = remove yourself from society for a while' mode, that is just disastrous for sports. Also for regular work life of course, with tons of people with non-remote jobs sitting at home feeling fine, but with a positive test.

Tested in Beijing ? Then he has 7 days quaranine, will be tested twice per day, if he has 2 consecutive days all 4 tests negative he cane leave the isolation...according to our team officials

 

If tested before the departure, it is a 5 days quarantine in which he must have 4 consecutive negative tests...

 

A Close contact is the same, closed for 7 days, tested twice per day, 4 consecutive negative tests and you are free

Zero-COVID policy (especially the part with hyper sensitive tests and inconclusive results) makes absolutely no sense. I mean, it did make sense two years ago when nobody knew what COVID was, how to control it, etc, but right now it makes no sense since it is not going away. Why not control every other transmisable disease like this then?

 

Apparently Xi's invention of zero-COVID policy faces scrutiny in the communist party too, but without his approval nothing will change. But we all know what having giant ego can do. Leaving millions at indefinite house arrest is so much easier.

China’s vaccine doesn’t really work that well and they won’t want their public knowing that.

Then again, knowing that travelling is a risk, close contacts and so on, it's just stupid at this point to go to China 3 days before official training of their competition. Should have been there one week ago if not more.

Doesn't help that FIS organized, among other things, the most lucrative Nordic combined WC stage last weekend.

The Games might be cancelled, I heard.

Natalia Maliszewska has been tested positive today again 😐 

So i don't think she will start in 500 because heats are on Saturday. 

 

But maybe she will make a miracle in 1000 later on.
