The CDC’s updated guidelines recommend a shortened isolation period
Like schools across the country, the SEC has been impacted by players testing positive for COVID-19 in recent weeks, particularly its men’s and women’s basketball schedule. So far, no bowl games featuring SEC teams have been postponed or canceled.
In a statement, CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky attributed the change to quick spreading of the Omicron variant and its potential for wide-scale impact. “CDC’s updated recommendations for isolation and quarantine balance what we know about the spread of the virus and the protection provided by vaccination and booster doses,” Walensky said. “These updates ensure people can safely continue their daily lives. Prevention is our best option: get vaccinated, get boosted, wear a mask in public indoor settings in areas of substantial and high community transmission, and take a test before you gather.
