And even if a player only exhibits mild symptoms, you're not going to play someone who's sick and can infect others. So they're quarantined for a couple of weeks. Now what happens if half your squad comes down with symptoms and can't play for 2 weeks? Now we are talking about forfeiting games.
And when you're sick, regardless of severity, the general rule of thumb is to give your body rest in order to recover. Intensive physical activity is not a good way to get better. If anything it aggravates the issue, especially where respiratory illness is concerned.
