Russian Olympic Committee women's ice hockey player Polina Bolgareva has tested positive for COVID-19, the RIA news agency reported on Tuesday, a day after confusion over test results caused an hour delay in their game against Canada.
The Canadian women's ice hockey team refused to take the ice on Monday at the 2022 Winter Olympics while they waited for the ROC's COVID-19 test results and later played wearing masks due to"safety and security concerns." The ROC removed their masks in the third period but Canada retained theirs before recording a routine 6-1 victory in the preliminary game."Everybody saw how we played against Canada with masks and took them off after the second period, when we received the results of our tests. They were all negative," he told the state news agency.
"We arrived at the Olympic Village after the game against Canada and found out that Polina had tested positive for the coronavirus. "I don’t understand how this happened. Her test in the morning that had shown a negative result suddenly became positive."
