I'm guessing he had 1 negative test so far? Or would it need to be 2 to go to facility?

Come back soon MVP!


I think you need the 2 negative tests in order to be out of quarantine, so this tweet implies that he's had that and is now ramping up his conditioning.


Nvm, I stand corrected.

This is not true. The J&J vaccine uses a harmless virus that teaches your cells to produce the COVID-19 spike protein so that your immune system can learn to detect it. It's not a "weakened" form of the COVID-19 virus in any sense.


Did I write J&J vaccine? Or even “Covid vaccine”? I wrote “original vaccines” - as in smallpox, cholera, TB, polio, etc.

J&J uses a modern tech, that hasn’t been used a whole lot and is similar in some ways to the mRNA vaccines - but not quite as novel. Novavax’s vaccine will be the first truly traditional vaccine for COVID that is / soon will be widely used.

Looks like they are keeping Caruso out vs Pistons since it's a back to back game - so they rather him be back vs Nets instead. Plus we will be 4 games in 5 nights so if he misses the 1st game, it's understandable.

So in that case, I understand.

Saw that Bradley Beal re-entered protocols. Discouraging sign.

Heard Amin say that he still hasn't tested negative, so I don't think he's playing on Wed.

Billy said his cycling #s, needed to clear protocols, are moving in the right direction so I think he'll be available soon although probably not tonight.

@KCJHoop: Billy Donovan said he doesn’t expect Alex Caruso to play Friday vs. Warriors.

Well, friday will be his 10th day on protocols. Guess that means he's symptomatic, right?!
Constantly underwhelmed by the Bulls.

Don't think he's symptomatic...he's been practicing, but he hasn't tested negative yet.

Someone (KC?) said he was symptomatic but mild.

Joe Rogan and Spotify are under fire for spreading misinformation about Covid:

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/01/14/experts-confront-spotify-over-misinformation-in-joe-rogan-podcast.html

270 health experts to Spotify: Joe Rogan’s Covid misinformation is ‘a sociological issue of devastating proportions’

"The letter specifically highlighted a December 31 episode featuring Dr. Robert Malone, a virologist who was recently banned from Twitter for spreading vaccine falsehoods. On the episode, Malone told host Joe Rogan that there had recently been an “explosion of vaccine-associated deaths,” and that hospitals are financially incentivized to label Covid as a cause of patient deaths. He also said leaders are using “free-floating anxiety” to “hypnotize” the public.

All three theories were quickly identified as false, as reported by AP News and nonprofit fact-checking outlet PolitiFact. YouTube removed a video of the interview soon after it was posted, citing violated community guidelines."

Any chance they’re holding him out to make sure his injury is fully healed AND trying to showcase Coby and TBJ as much as they can? TBJ has a nice game recently too.

This seems pretty long to me, especially with the new guidelines
KC: Do you still think you're a championship-caliber team?
Gar: I never said that and correct me if I'm wrong

Do you still need 2 negative tests? I would have hoped if he had 1 negative test there would be a report about being close or something. Since there’s not I presume this means he’s out tomorrow in Boston too. Hopefully Monday’s tough game against Memphis will be his return

Dammit. I remember when he went on the COVID list we were hoping he'd be back in time for the start of this 4 in 5 stretch. Now he's missing all of it plus an equally difficult game on Monday.

I'm pretty sure Carusos immune system is the cure to covid...
