With COVID-19 canceling several games every day across the college basketball landscape, the NCAA needed to figure out a guideline to put into place as programs fight to keep their teams playing in the ever-changing landscape.
On Thursday afternoon, the NCAA released some updated guidelines for winter sports, including adjusting its definition of fully vaccinated individuals. They also updated the protocols for what should happen following a positive test.
The NCAA COVID-19 Medical Advisory Group are the ones who adjusted the definition of “fully vaccinated” individuals to where it now accounts for vaccinations, boosters, and other factors surrounding a person immunity.
