North America:

During the MLB season, teams endured multiple outbreaks. In their handling of positive tests, many teams complied with updated protocols, making sure that infected team members were not spreading the virus to other players, coaching staff, and members of the organization. Compliance lapsed when one of the players, Justin Turner, who had a positive COVID-19 case, stormed the field after the Dodgers won the 2020 World Series.

After being ordered into isolation and failing to comply with the rules, Justin Turner, the Dodgers team, and the whole MLB organization received unwanted backlash from the world who watched the game under COVID-19 updated protocols.

Turner ignored what the MLB had ordered him to do. After the team’s win, he was seen running to the field, taking photos, and hugging players.

COVID-19 has had numerous impacts on the world of sports, causing people to make actions that otherwise seem permissible in every-day life, but since in the wake of a global pandemic, Turner’s actions are seen as careless and foolish from the viewers.

A negative response to the COVID - 19 protocols is inevitable and especially being on the big screen, MLB player Justin Turner endured the troubling influx of negative backlash after his positive COVID test. After the World Series Game, five members of the Dodgers team tested positive.

How players have responded to the changes the COVID-19 pandemic has had on their teams

The novel coronavirus pandemic has resulted in economic losses for workers who continue to try to make a living. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, teams have been eager to start playing again, but they need the support of the workers who provide a comfortable and adequate place for them to play Globally, since the new norm in 2020 is social distancing, the most important step was to figure out how to survive financially, especially for the stadium workers who couldn’t afford the time it takes to stimulate a new bill to address these and provide for these personal issues.

The Miami Heat basketball team has announced that they will be committed to help their stadium workers survive financially by paying them immediately instead of waiting for a check to come in, because the wait would have had a severe financial detrimental effect to each individual worker. Heat owner Micky Arison has announced that he pledged to donate $1 million to provide for the Miami community because of the immense impact that COVID-19 has had on the financial-compromised community.

A negative response to the COVID - 19 protocols is inevitable and especially being on the big screen, MLB player Justin Turner endured the troubling influx of negative backlash after his positive COVID test. After the World Series Game, five members of the Dodgers team tested positive.

With Big-Ten programs continuing to play their updated-COVID schedules, a specific team, the Wisconsin Badgers had consecutive games canceled due to the amount of positive COVID-19 cases. The response that Wisconsin gave followed along with the updated COVID-19 protocols. There has been no sign of foul or violating protocols by the team. The numerous positive test results have had a detrimental effect on their respective 2020-21 season, having the team not be able to participate in numerous games.
