Well this is shit news.
Hope hes ok and recovers and everyone close to him is ok as well.

It's been said he has to isolate for a minimum of 14 days now. When he tests negative for the virus he will be allowed back.
Rules are "different" for athletes and other key workers as long as they are frequently tested and they have the resources for all this.
It's not like your average workers where they don't have the capacity to test everyone as much.
“I wouldn’t sell Madrid a virus”
Sancho: Nein
Harry: Jail
Pogba: Corona
This summer break is no good.

He's not had much luck of late. Let's hope it's mild and without symptoms
Lindelof: Batman
Maybe if idiot Woodward got it, he could stay at home and get some bloody transfers done
Ed sees United face-masks opportunity.
get well soon, Pog.
get well soon, Pog.
but won't pay more than 5p for six tons of material
It doesn't seem address COVID specifically does it ?
Statistically, the younger a person is, the less likely they are going to be affected by getting COVID, which is clear when broken down by age of deaths.

Get well soon Pogba!
Damn, damn damn damn. (Trumpets playing)
What?!
So, he doesn't need to self isolate for 24 days?
Afaik if you have Corona (can't check as NHS website is down), you can stop isolating as soon as you test negative.
Might be different in France though.
Is love to test positive for Covid as super rich footballer. Stuck in my mansion with tennis courts, gyms, etc
Why even mention if your a fan or not, what’s that got to do with anything?
“You are like a person with a flu with a virus in a closed room – you pass that virus to the others.”
You’re far more likely to catch colds and such after running a marathon but that’s extreme activity pushing your body to its absolute limits. Football isn’t really in that category, players don’t tend to collapse after playing a match.
I don't think there has been any study of athletes susceptibility to COVID. The only thing I recall reading were theories that athletes may be more likely to catch it due to their respritory systems being put under increased strain whilst in close quarters to other people, but no evidence was provided.
The link with ethnicity isnt inherent, it's environmental. Africa has the lowest fatalities
Think we'll see a lot of positive tests over the next few weeks. Going from holiday right into training is a recipe for disaster. Might even delay the start of the season.
I think he has been in England for his entire vacation? There were pictures of him out dining in London with friends.
He had probably felt a bit shoddy and took a test before potentially flying out for the french squad meetup.
Hahaha I was literally just thinking, did he really need to add that bit? Bizarre.
I'm just in shock that a British journalist managed to type Paul Pogba and something positive in the same sentence.
Hopefully he's asymptomatic or at worst, just has a mild dose. Fingers crossed he just needs to go through the formalities and will be back to us for the start of our season.

No it is a myth, recently travelled to the Caribbean and the demographics there are maybe 60-65% black in the more developed countries yet there is no higher risk of contracting the virus. Also those who do get it usually recover and much faster than those people of the sam race in the USA. But black people there on average are richer than in the USA or Europe and have access to great free healthcare so I think that is the difference.
The economic situation of black people in the USA and the below average healthcare availble there for most folk who are not rich.
It is not.
Not sure what that means, the ethnic minorities are actually the ethnic majorities.
Do some reading and don't believe everything you see on the tv. The same Fauci guy stands to profit widely from a vaccine, if his becomes the widely used one, but if people do not see this virus as all threatening no one will feel the need to take it; hence why he is in the media daily.
All that paper does is attempt to find holes in the multitude of research studies that show vigorous exercise diminishes immune response. It provides no research of its own and is fairly meaningless as a result.
Luck with injuries play a part and now players getting the virus will play a part.
World #19 tennis player was completely wiped by it for a month and said he still isn’t 100%, two months later.
You could do with citing some sources rather than telling people to "do some reading"
He said 'likely' There's no need to catastrophise. How many athletes of the many that have had it are still struggling with it?
Wish him a speedy recovery. Get well soon bro.
It's a risk to everyone no matter the age or fitness. I thought we were way past downplaying the effects of the virus?
But it's also getting less and less dangerous, thank god. (Apparently)
Maybe (but not definitely, it's just a guess) because those who do get it are less likely to get a high viral load (the virus being better contained) giving the body a better chance of getting on top of it.
Then again I don't know. But hopefully, those of us who do get it are not getting it hard.
We're at *negative* excess deaths each week at the moment. Actually even that's not true because across young age groups were still at *positive* excess deaths but most of those will be because of postponed hospital appointments etc
The most anyone ever self isolates for is 2 weeks.
Fingers crossed he isn't one of the people who have a bad reaction or lasting effect from this.
Maybe he might even be back ready for Sep 19th all being well.
He's highly likely to be completely fine like the rest of the players that have it and have already had it. It's not downplaying anything.
Hopefully it won’t have any impact on Pogba’s health.
Donovan Mitchell from the Utah Jazz (in the NBA) had tested positive too. He’s been playing the best basketball of his life since the restart. In fact most NBA and NFL athletes seem to have recovered quickly.
Me and him don’t really see eye to eye. But hope he makes a full recovery.
Waiting for Souness to use this against him
