Colts closed practice after 4 positive tests. Later reported to be false positives.
What test are they using to get so many false positives?
This strikes me as suspicious. Unless they were all infected with a non SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus causing them to be positive, I would think the odds of 4 positive tests all being false positives seems exceedingly unlikely. Even with a low positive predictive value (say 40%), you are talking about a 2.5% chance that all four were false positives.

That was my reaction, too.
And what about Saban? I saw on TV today that if he gets 3 negative tests in a row, then he can coach on Saturday. Thursday, check; Friday and Saturday remain to be seen. But if the guy had it, shouldn't he be on the shelf for at least one Saturday?
