From Clemson's AD:


Clemson Athletics COVID-19 Update

Thus far in the month of June, Clemson Athletics student-athletes and staff have completed 315 tests for COVID-19 with a total of 28 positive results.

Clemson has notified and isolated each of those individuals who tested positive for a period of at least 10 days. Close known contacts have also been asked to self-quarantine for at least 14 days. Most of the total cases have been asymptomatic, and none have required hospitalization. As community transmission continues throughout the area, it is advised that individuals monitor for symptoms.

As the State of South Carolina and the Upstate continue to experience community transmission of COVID-19, individuals are advised to continue to practice non-pharmaceutical interventions, including face coverings and social distancing.

More information about steps individuals should take if they test positive or have known exposure is available on the University’s website at www.clemson.edu/coronavirus, and detailed instructions on notification procedures will continue to be updated on that site.

“ Most of the total cases have been asymptomatic, and none have required hospitalization.“

Shelter the vulnerable, please.... and let’s do life.

 

[GoodWord28]

Round table before 10pm bc this board cant handle it imo

 

[Larry_Williams]

Just for context, last week they itemized the total tests/total positive by sports (FB, MBB, WBB) and staffers.

Now they're doing the more general "student-athletes and staffers."

Here were last week's numbers:


Staff working directly with student-athletes: Total tested: 41; Positive: 0

Football: Total tested: 104; Positive: 2

Men’s Basketball: Total tested: 12; Positive: 1

Women’s Basketball: Total tested: 12; Positive: 0

Cumulative: Tested: 169; Positive: 3

 

[RoyalBengal25]

23 FB players - that’s a pretty big number.

 

[CU_TrialLawyer]

Well, at least Trevor and ETN will not get hurt this SZN and protect their draft stock.

 

[MaxCalifornia]

Herd immunity plz.

 

[Ron Munson]

“ Most of the total cases have been asymptomatic, and none have required hospitalization.“

Shelter the vulnerable, please.... and let’s do life.

We just need to go for heard mentality and protect the elderly and others with weakened immune systems

No bueno

You can’t react like a communist in a market driven economy. The two don’t mix

 

[CU1TruTiger4Life]

@Larry_Williams Can you text Tim Bourrett and ask him what procedures were put in place for the flu and how it affected the 1918 season?

UBI my friend.

He probably knows detailed test results for each individual person right off the top of his head

 

[Larry_Williams]

23 positive tests for football after two last week.

 

[CFlowers8511]

Well at least we get to play the Dawgs in our next game

 

[ClemsonSam21]

I'm currently a student in Clemson that just tested positive (I am completely fine). The majority of students I know that are in town just tested positive or are waiting for their results, and are assuming it is positive. The rest are getting tested in the coming days.

I expect this number will be significantly higher than 28 soon.

 

[PartyLikeIts2016]

Protest march contribute?

 

[OculusTiger]

23 positive tests for football after two last week.

how many symptomatic?

 

[GoodWord28]

Wink twice if tl16, etn, carman, and skalski have it....

 

[BroMontana]

23 positive tests for football after two last week.

Hey @Larry_Williams they didn’t happen to say what company’s test kit they’re using did they?

 

[Larry_Williams]

Hey @Larry_Williams they didn’t happen to say what company’s test kit they’re using did they?

Not that I know of.

 

[Tigerbomb]

I think we can all agree that Covid is contagious as hell.

 

[Steven15]

We need another few protests or get them all to NewSpring service ASAP before Fall Camp starts, otherwise players will get all throughout the season. Can't risk Trevor being out by the start of conference games.

It's a tough ask, but best is the standard and it must be done.

 

[clemsontyger04]

23 positive tests for football after two last week.

Will there be an announcement about if they were at the protest Saturday? I would think those who attended might want to know if they may have come in contact with someone who is a carrier or not.

 

[iamzcaptn]

Good God. Are we really doing this? Asymptomatic and zero hospitalizations. As this virus mutates it is clearly getting weaker and weaker. This is turning into not much more than a common cold. FFS this is so out of hand.

At what point do leaders stand up and say “we have clearly noticed a weakening in the virus and no longer need to be testing and restricting events do to asymptomatic positives.”

What frustrates me the most is the major lag between scientific data and rational decisions being made that affect all of us.

 

[gcsoccer16]

There were hundreds of people packed tight on Bowman field a week ago

Another covid truther.

 

[Every name taken]

@Larry_Williams Can you text Tim Bourrett and ask him what procedures were put in place for the flu and how it affected the 1918 season?

Not sure but Clemson was 6-2 in 1917 and 5-2 in 1918 and beat the gamecocks both years

 

[Cocks are Number 1]

Foils your plan..., I know.

 

[clemsontyger04]

Oh look the dumb ass is posting again

 

[CU91ENGR]

For everyone screaming herd immunity, has it been proven yet that you are immune to this once you have had it once? I haven't seen anything that says they've proven that yet.

 

[fender44]

We just need to go for heard mentality and protect the elderly and others with weakened immune systems

you gonna wear face covering and do your part?

 

[TMcGrady1]

Well at least we get to play the Dawgs in our next game

I predict TL will be our starter in Charlotte against UGA if this season gets cancelled. A mutual very close friend of ours has told me TL’s chances of returning in this scenario are 50/50. Trevor has stated multiple times how he won’t rule out playing 4 years at Clemson and this would only be his third. Plus he loves Clemson and won’t want to go out like he did against LSU. Will also get a massive insurance policy.

they also haven’t proven that people who develop antibodies once, can get the virus again (and get sick)

works both ways.

but history shows that other novel viruses acted in a way where once exposed, the person was good

herd immunity concept is basically going off history of similar virus

COVID19 can't melt steel beams

 

[dbjork6317]

COVID19 can't melt steel beams

COVID-19 was a controlled demolition

 

[CFlowers8511]

Dabo playing 3D chess making sure these boys get the COVID out of their system before the season

 

[Cope_CU_Tiger]

So by camp the entire team will have antibodies.....

Football isn’t happening this year.
