“The challenge has become even greater,” said national coach Mark Parsons at the press conference. “Viev is fine, although she does have symptoms. She is now also in isolation. This is a big blow for us, but we have to move on. We look at the challenge that lies ahead. I am also happy that the team has expanded in the past period.”
After Jackie Groenen, she is the second player to have tested positive for an otherwise injured team. “Since Jackie’s positive test, we have tightened the measures,” said Parsons.
