\n The NFL is changing the current coronavirus screening and testing protocols, it announced Friday.<\/p>\n

Dr. Allen Sills, chief medical officer of the league, sent out a memo to all club presidents, general<\/a> managers, head coaches, team physicians and athletic trainers on Friday detailing change regarding unconfirmed and false positive tests.<\/p>\n

\u201cTest results reported as \u2018presumptive positive\u2019 or \u2018inconclusive\u2019 should be considered the same as \u2018positive,\u2019\u201d Sills confirmed. \u201cWith regard to further testing, treatment, and screening.\u201d<\/p>\n

The update comes after Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford was removed from the COVID-IR list on Tuesday, receiving a false-positive test that turned his family\u2019s life upside down. His wife Kelly complained that the results have been essentially ruining her life via Instagram.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe always want to produce the most accurate test results,\u201d Sills said on a conference call with reporters. \u201cWhen you have 75,000 tests, you collect a lot of learning.\u201d<\/p>\n

As well as the changes to the testing protocols, Sills is also advocating changing the league\u2019s current Treatment Response Protocols.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll players, Tier 1 and Tier 2 personnel must use facemasks at all times when in the club facility except players may remove their masks when physical activity prevents their use (at which times they are encouraged when possible),\u201d Stills explained in the memo. \u201cPlayers are encouraged, but not required to wear masks in the weight room. Face shields are NOT an acceptable substitute for face masks, though they may be worn in addition to a mask for additional protection.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
