Australian rugby player Benji Marshall quarantined through journalist's kiss.
Westes Tigers club player greets Michelle Bishop, a Seven Network reporter, during a training session, kissing her on the cheek. Thus, he violated the strict biosafety rules of the National Rugby League. Therefore, the club quarantined the player until the mediator passed the test for coronavirus COVID-19.
Bishop herself wrote that this situation clearly demonstrates how easy it is to get caught, forgetting for a moment about a new reality. Earlier it was reported that football players were advised to refrain from spitting on the field. The reason is the possible spread of coronavirus from saliva, which remains for hours on the lawn. FIFA Referees Committee Chairman Pierluigi Collina said competition organizers can punish players for unhygienic behavior after matches.
