‘We know many of these associates know each other, spend time together and speak frequently so we want everyone to take the necessary precautions and follow CDC guidance even though we’re not together and playing baseball,’ Green said.
The Cubs said in the email to staff they ‘reached out to both associates to offer our support.’ They also urged employees to monitor their health closely and follow guidelines set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Most people who contract COVID-19 have mild or moderate symptoms, which can include fever and cough but also milder cases of pneumonia, sometimes requiring hospitalization. The risk of death is greater for older adults and people with other health problems.
