I’m torn on this one. It seems he took legit precautions up until the race. And the race is incredibly short, far less time than we were told was a serious risk. If the race takes 20-30 seconds and the lining up is a couple minutes, that’s not a lot of exposure.

He congratulated the winner by shaking his hand and giving him a hug after the race …

Man fuck him

Thought he was Michael Jordan playing through the flu (or food poisoning). Selfish jackass.

What’s the difference between playing with Influenca and covid?

“Just the flu” is seriously underselling Influenca and was coined by anti-vaxxers. I know people that have been in intensive care with it, even children.

It’s not the “common cold” which usually refers to bacterial infections.

phdepressed ,

Common cold still mostly refers to a viral infection (several different ones) just not as bad as influenza or covid.

Serinus ,

It’s the Olympics and they’re near the end. Almost nobody else is taking serious precautions at this point.

How do you think he caught it? He’s not the only source of Covid at the Olympics.

The German silver medal winner in long jumping couldn’t finish her last jump and got wheeled off in a wheelchair as she couldn’t breathe properly anymore as a result from a 2 month old COVID infection still reducing her lung volume.

Long COVID✨✨

A couple months ago a bunch of French olympic volunteers resigned due to the lack of COVID precautions.

I guess they were right.

The one thing you shouldn’t do with Covid is push hard while you have it, that increases the risk of developing Long Covid.

Imagine breathing hard and gasping for breath around a bunch of other people is also probably a big No-No. I didn’t watch it did he go up into the stands to hug people like he did in the previous race?

Plopp ,

Yup, MMA fighter Khamzat Chimaev might have ruined his career doing exactly that.

GoldenDeLorean ,

Every athlete who finished after him now has Covid.

PapaStevesy ,

All of France actually, it’s a bad one

Then he crushed a coconut with his bare hand, and then wrestled a saltwater crocodile, pinning it in under a minute.

And then went on to prove that black is white and was swiftly trampled at the next zebra crossing.
