Fightful.com broke the news about there being several WWE/NXT performers who tested positive for COVID-19. Tonight, Sean Ross Sapp has posted a message from WWE with comments regarding the recent outbreak.
Here’s what WWE sent to Fightful:
“As part of ongoing testing protocols, WWE completed its second round of weekly COVID-19 testing on Tuesday. Individuals that tested positive will quarantine for 14 days, receive medical care, and then will only be cleared when they are symptom-free and test negative. Additionally, extensive contact tracing has taken place and other individuals have been placed in 14-day quarantine, and will then only be cleared after they test negative.”
