Before the start of the event in Nove Mesto, it became known about a positive test of Sturla Legreid, he missed all races Nove Mesto. And on Sunday, the Norwegians announced that Johannes and Tarjei Boe had also tested positive.
But judging by the fact that they plan to return on Sunday, the disease is asymptomatic.
The fact that the brothers will not be able to perform until Sunday, said the manager of the national team, Per Arne Botnan. Apparently, this means that the IBU rules regarding covid have changed, and it is already enough to sit out just 7 days.
Johannes Boe has a 400-point lead over Sturla Legrade and theoretically 450 points could be scored with 5 races remaining, which is unlikely to be achieved by Sturla even if Johannes does not return.
