So there wasn’t a single game cancelled due to false positives. This year, forfeits can occur if the team is unable to field a team due to unvaccinated players. That means the team would have to have multiple false positives in an entire position group without time to perform retesting in unvaccinated players making this scenario unlikely, but not impossible.
At this point, Covid is 95% preventable with the Pfizer vaccine, 94% with Moderna, and 66% with Johnson&Johnson.

You just described a false positive so I don’t understand what you mean.
Quote:just test those not vaccinated and you will lesson the issues that have been created
Forfeits won’t occur because of vaccinated players. So if you have 53 vaccinated players test positive, they won’t be allowed to play to prevent possibly infecting the other team, but the team doesn’t have to forfeit and the NFL also stated in this situation they will work with the teams to reschedule.
