Is it standard practice for someone returning a negative NHS test to be told to self isolate for 10 days?
If they have to isolate for 10 days after a positive case is returned from the private testing then what's the point in the NHS test?

Only if they are isolating as part of a group. If it is an individual, then according to government advice they can end their isolation early if they have a negative test ..

The person must have tested positive first but I’m no sure .

Interested to understand what's happening here...
Are the private tests less accurate? If we're getting false positives, are we also getting false negatives? How confident are we that it's the first test that is wrong and not the second? Presumably not 100% given the player needs to quarantine.
Not stirring btw, just genuinely curious. Anyone in the know?

So Aberdeen players go out on the lash in a weekend that saw the city go back into lockdown - matches postponed and players available for today.
We have a player who returns a false positive and is told that he can’t play?
What’s the ****ing point in competing when the SFA have rulings like that?

I genuinely cannot fathom the rules surrounding this.
If they're not certain of the results surrounding a single player, and said player has to enter isolation, then surely (as a precaution) the whole squad has to enter isolation too, especially as the incubation period can be as long as 14 days.
Also, absolutely farcical that the Aberdeen 8 have escaped any sort of punishment and now Hibs are the side inconvenienced.

From a strict GDPR perspective the club would have to have reason to name the player publicly, esp given the type of data involved (ie health - which is special category data under the GDPR). Although if Dabrowski makes his first team debut in goals today it should be fairly obvious 😂
I do wonder about false positives though. 6 new covid cases in Lothian yesterday and 51 in the last week. This player will not be one of the 6 and will feature in today's stats. Very, very unfortunate by law of averages to have caught Covid.

Absolutely, but it's the rules in place that are causing annoyance.
If they feel it's essential the player involved isolates, then using the same concern for public health etc, the whole squad should be isolating and the game called off.
Rules such as the one invoked today only heighten my lack of faith in the system in place.

It’s mental and typical of the bull**** that goes on The private firms are aware of space and lots of people have false positives when tested by them but are negative when tested by NHS. The Goverment have admitted this in several
Occasions so if NHS one came back negative as it did he should of been allowed to play imo

They don’t need to self-isolate as they are past that period. You are comparing a suspension to a self-isolation period which aren’t comparable.
FWIW I disagree with their verdict. I expected a one match ban as a minimum.

If both tests are correct, positive on Friday and becoming negative on Saturday then you can still be contagious for 10 days from Friday.
Being pedantic it may be more correct to say infectious not contagious but if you don’t have the virus in the back of your nose/throat as evidenced by a negative test then breathing out may not be delivering any or enough viral load to infect others.
If you did have the virus in the rest of your respiratory system then to deliver it outwards to others it would need to pass through your nose/throat and so you’d surely find it in a test? If it is in your intestines then washing hands at the right time would suffice! I’d expect it is complacent to expect it only passes through expelled droplets (I tend to think about the big clouds of crap that a vaper expels as being the size of a danger zone) but would hope a properly done test would still find it in the nose/throat area of someone who is infectious. To be fair I’d expect a test that is wrong to be more likely to be a a false negative from not sticking the swab far enough into the right places. :wink:
The self isolation of the player may be a little belt braces and sewing to the shirt tail but the consequences of getting it wrong to the team may justify it.

That is what I presumed. They will be playing safe. The key thing is that there is 100% consistency. But watch this space for a Hun to get similar results, the team to train as normal, and the player not be told to self-isolate. Probably all in the days leading up to them playing us.

This will be last season's midfield all over again. Predicting our excellent defensive record to be blown out the window big time today.
Rotten luck.

Hallberg, Allan and Newall in the middle. It will be like last season. Aberdeen will get a free run at our centre halves. Shows what a loss not getting McCrorie was.

Last season when we beat them 3-0 with Mallan, Allan and Hallberg?

Being pedantic I know but why did the Club statement not say returned a positive result why use "a result which required further investigation. "
Results can be inconclusive.

I hope you’re man enough to apologise.
My bad.
Terrible news though, that it happens to be a key player also. Meanwhile Aberdeen are free to play the 8 rule breakers. Load of nonsense.

If the player is negative, he should be playing. Laughable rule.
You either treat him as a positive or you treat him as a negative. This is a half way house.

Absolute joke.
It's quite simple,if his 2nd test came up neg he should be allowed to play.
Can see this happening again,not just to us but others as well

If the positive results can be wrong, can the negative ones have an equal chance of also being wrong?

So Aberdeen get games postponed due to 8 of their players breaking rules.
We have one false positive test followed up by a negative test and the game goes ahead. How on earth is this fair?
Utter nonsense. Punished by doing nothing wrong. :yawn:

Yes, false positive, false negative, goes both ways.

Not sure if its an equal chance but you can definitely get a false negative.

Exactly. Wonder what would happen if we just played him. There really is no reason other than the SFA just saying so that he cant play. They dont' get to pick and chose who is eligible.

I don’t know how to post a screenshot via my phone, but according to gov website if you or your family are isolating if you are experiencing coronavirus symptoms you can end that isolation early if you receive a negative test result. I’m just not understanding this decision to rule Gogic out of today’s game.

Both the SFA and goverment advised that he needs to self isolate for 10 days

It makes absolutely no sense. Would the same decision have been made if it was Scott Brown missing an old firm game because of a false positive?

If they feel there is doubt in the validity of Gogic's test result and he's being told to isolate as a precaution - how can they possibly let the game go ahead with a squad of players who have been in contact with him all week, especially when there is a 14 day incubation period?
It's a complete farce!

I’m all for not taking chances, but I’m guessing he’s not even displaying any symptoms, so you take his negative result as being accurate so he’s therefore the same as every other player who has also tested negative after their most recent test and are available to play today.

Bizarre really. Someone I know recently had a negative test and was back to being able to do whatever immediately. Go to work, go to shops etc.

Absolute farce. We lose our most important player in this fixture through a technicality. They have 3 games postponed due to their own behaviour yet face no consequences.
Utter disgrace.

Spot on, what actual footballing penalty have they had? Get to pick their best XI when they play these fixtures!? Absolute joke by the SFA.

Complete and utter nonsense, particularly galling against today's opponents who have been rewarded with fixtures postponed until players who flouted the rules are fit to play - scandalous.

Exactly, who's to say the 2nd test was incorrect yet game goes ahead. Should be postponed for 7 days or whatever the rule is now!
