The COVID-19 outbreak on the Miami Marlins, which resulted in two postponed games on Monday and more on Tuesday, brought up some important questions: Are MLB’s protocols really enough to prevent players from getting sick? Is it even safe for MLB to have a season?
Who better to answer those questions than Dr. Anthony Fauci, avid Washington Nationals fan and longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases? Fauci spoke about MLB’s COVID-19 outbreak on “Good Morning America” on Tuesday, and professed his faith in MLB’s protocols and its ability to contain and stop an outbreak.
