UK football players test for COVID-19

Six of Kentucky’s 106 players have tested positive for Covid-19 antibodies. According to a news release from the school, the student-athletes who tested positive went through an evaluation process and were subsequently cleared to participate. The players began arriving on campus June 8th. Meanwhile, the Lexington Herald Leader reports a test specifically for COVID-19 has been administered to one player, who was known to have been in contact with an infected individual, who was not a UK athlete. The athlete tested negative but is currently in isolation.
