Bendika and Bricis, along with Kauken are insisting that their positive COVID test results were not a big deal.  They argue that it is simply the flu.  They will be retested in a day or so, so that both Bendika and Kauken can participate in FInland.  Both will miss opening round, but are trying to be ready for week 1.
