The 49ers hold down COVID-19 – Whoops, except for Fred Warner

Just when you think you have figured something out . . .

At 10:30 Monday morning, I was writing about how surprising it was that the NFL has been able to keep COVID-19 cases under control. Although there was a spike of nearly 100 players when training camps started, once those players were quarantined and cleared, the virus seemed to be staying down in professional football.

The NFL even put out a press release saying between Aug. 10 and Aug. 20, 58,397 tests were administered and only six positives turned up — none of them players. So apparently the regular season is on.
