Another four Bayern Munich players have joined Joshua Kimmich in quarantine after having contact with someone who tested positive for the coronavirus.
The Bavarian powerhouse said Sunday that Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala, Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting and Michael Cuisance all have to self-isolate under instruction from the local health authority after having contact with a person who works closely with the team who has tested positive for COVID-19.
The club did not say how long the players would be out of action. They will miss Bayern's Champions League game at Dynamo Kyiv on Tuesday.
According to German media reports the four players are unvaccinated, likely explaining why they specifically have to take extra precautions after contact with an infected person.
On Thursday, Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann said, "The players who are not vaccinated understand that the risk of missing games or training sessions is much greater as an unvaccinated person than as a vaccinated person."
On Friday, Bayern said midfielder Kimmich was back in quarantine for the second time after again coming in contact with an infected person. Kimmich also had to isolate the previous week and missed Germany's final World Cup qualifier after having contact with Bayern teammate Niklas Süle, who tested positive for COVID-19.
The 26-year-old Kimmich previously caused a furor in Germany for voicing his reservations about getting vaccinated against the coronavirus.
Josip Stanii was another Bayern player in quarantine after he tested positive for COVID-19 on his return from international duty with Croatia.
Germany reported a record 106,651 coronavirus infections over the weekend, with the states of Bavaria and Saxony hardest hit as the country goes through a fourth wave of infections.

I am a doctor btw, I know all of this, also HIV test is taken after 40-60 not 3 months ( 3 months is the extreme max since a treatment need to be asap if positive). but away from that, in the medical law a vaccine is up to the patient not up to us to force it on him. now you are right covid is contagious in its incubation period but it is also contagious to the vaccinated players as the vaccine provides no guaranteed protection against infection, all we know for sure about it is that it reduce the virus effect when you are infected. Now let's exclude kimmich ( tho he is right in the long run consequences of the vaccine tho, that is why I opted for sinopharm) the rest of the players were in contact with a case then took the quarantine and got the negative PCR test and then participated in the league game, key word here participated in the league game with the rest of the team, now they are having a 2nd quarantine? well I mean they are cleared, and if they not that mean the whole team should be suspected cases. now this is the whole topic that it is not regulation anymore it is making and example forcing them to get the jab which is against health law, as I mentioned and we can see those unvaccinated players didn't get infected while the ones who got infected were the vaccinated players, so we can't provide a concrete base to assure them to get vaccinated, that definitely doesn't give us the right to force them to get vaccinated if they choose not to. btw I am not saying anti-vaxxers are right, tho even tho they are wrong I can't illegally force them.
He's got the virus. Quit the long posts, if he can't see that the vaccine is for his wellbeing, that's his choice, but we're not going to allow him to spread the virus to others. he's rich, he can always get the best medical attention, many others can't.

just wow this is some intransigence, they were always unvaccinated and this wasn't happening, now just because they announce it all of a sudden the rules change ?. plus even before the vaccine a negative PCR is enough, even vaccinated player must obtain a negative PCR so I don't really get where all this coming from.

you said it there, "returned a positive test" those players tested negative and upon that ended the first quarantine, now this is the 2nd quarantine and some of them even featured in the last league game.
if u understand viruses well enough, they have an incubation period, this is why if u go for a HIV test immediately after suspected exposure, you are asked to come back for another in 3 months because your negative test result might mean that the virus is still incubating. Same with the COVID, but because u can spread it even in this period, u need to be quarantined. Many EPL players refused the vaccine, Granit Xhaka for example and when he came in close contact with a diseased person, he was asked to quarantine, that's the standard, but nobody knew beforehand that he wasn't jabbed. But this Kimmich guy constantly puts himself in the news, he's not the only Bayern player that has not taken the vaccine but he's always running his mouth about it. Can't he just fvckin shut up?... football is secondary to health, Bayern are strong with or without him, if he wants to put himself in jeopardy, that's his personal problem... How many players are openly talking about refusing the jab?... what does he want from all these news?

you can see they are even taking in harder on kimmich from all players, they taking it hard on the rest yes but even harder on kimmich since he is the only one who spoke out about it, they are just setting and example to make vaccine mandatory.

They are punishing the players. Its inhumane harsh and demonic to force a man to take there poison. Natural Immunity is way better than vaccine. These health maniacs know.

Name one player who got close to someone who returned a positive test and wasn't asked to be quarantined.

nah nah here is where you are wrong, you get a week in quarantine then take a PCR test, they already featured in the last game away from kimmich, now this will he their 2nd quarantine. with the simple calculus you talking about the whole squad should he quarantine. and before the vaccine when there were a case no one spoke about quarantine for the people around the case all they cared about was the negative PCR test. all of this started happening after they came out as unvaccinated, plus the people who got infected are vaccinated and the unvaccinated ones are normal and kicking so as you see it is not "simple calculus", there is alot of enforcement agenda included as there are many other unvaccinated players in other leagues and we not seeing the same measurement done.

It happened to Kimmich before, this is not the first time... if you're unvaccinated and u come in close contact with a diseased person, common sense requires that u take extra precautions. Football doesn't matter in these cases, health first. I don't see how this simple issue has become infinitesimal calculus to you.
