New York announced the positive test for Nevin, who is fully vaccinated, about two hours before the first pitch Tuesday night at Tampa Bay. Willits' positive test was announced after the Yankees beat the Rays 3-1.

New York manager Aaron Boone also announced postgame that another staff member tested positive, but did not provide further details.

Willits and the unidentified staff member are fully vaccinated as well.

If he got the second vaccine yesterday this is a pretty dishonest headline.

Per the CDC, this no longer counts as a breakthrough infection unless he's hospitalized or dies. If he doesn't, we are not to count this as a covid infection.

Ehhh... could be a false positive. Could also mean he falls into that small percentage of people who can get it after the shot.

Side not... I am against the vaccination

1. The vaccines are 90-95% effective so some will still get it
2. Is he actually sick or was this a random positive?

When were they fully vaccinated? That's kind of important. If it was last week, then this isn't big news. If it was a month ago, then he's in that 5-10% that it didn't work for.

Also, the media has been clamoring to find these kinds of stories. They found one in a random pro sports assistant. Glad they get some clicks over this non story.

i mean this could literally be a bunch of different things

this could be a false positive
he could actually fall in the miniscule amount of people who would still get it after vaccinations

I’m curious what they define as fully vaccinated, as I’ve seen some differing guidance on that. Technically you’re not fully vaccinated until 14 days post-last shot in your sequence.

The real test is if he shows symptoms. He was tested through contact tracing I imagine.

It’s almost as if they want vaccine skepticism so that they can keep restrictions and covid coverage

I heard this crazy rumor that vaccines aren’t 100% effective. Weird.

Also could have the nick Saban False positive covid. Typical lazy reporting that doesn’t get all of the pertinent information or even tell the reader it tried but hasn’t been able to yet.

Doubt it. He was probably tested because MLB tests people nonstop.
