After Norway’s gold favorite Jarl Magnus Riiber tested positive for the corona virus, there was bad news for the German combined athletes on Friday. Eric Frenzel and Terence Weber have to be in quarantine, both of whom were diagnosed with a corona infection when they entered the country on Thursday.
Three-time Olympic champion Frenzel and his teammate were separated from the rest of the team. The German Olympic Sports Confederation announced that there were no other cases of contact. The first singles in Zhangjiakou will take place next Wednesday.
Anyone who contracted the virus at the Beijing Olympics will be isolated in a specially designated hotel. Only after two negative PCR tests at least 24 hours apart can those affected leave before the end of ten days. After this period, only a negative PCR test is required.
