No, that's incorrect. It was/is and will continue to be a control mechanism. If you haven't figured this out by now then you're basically a fresh mound of clay awaiting whatever shape the mighty hand bestows you.
I believe it was something like 70 positives a week in the NFL regular season and then once the playoffs started it came to an abrupt halt... Not a gradual dimmer switch, it was more like someone unplugged the lamp. I get that there's fewer teams in the playoffs, but the sum total of the games played in the postseason is equal to that of a regular season week.
There was no guarantee I was even going to be right when I made this thread. We could've had a spate of positives and I would've looked like a dummy. But of course it's not about health, professional athletes aren't high risk anyways, it's about campaigning for compliance, and the campaign took a break to allow that playoff money to pour in.
