7.7. Previous confirmed cases
It is currently recognised that those who have recovered from COVID-19 may still be at risk of delivering positive PCR test results, despite having no contagion risk nor virus symptoms. Participants from Group 1 or Group 2 who have verified confirmation that they have now recovered from the virus are invited to submit documentation of this to the UPAP, including the date of diagnosis of the virus, complete relevant medical history and any other medical documents in this context e.g. SARS-CoV-2-RNA test or any other laboratory tests. This must be provided at least one week before the team’s next UEFA Match. This information will then be analysed by the UPAP which may provide recommendations to the team concerned and to UEFA as to the possible steps to be taken.
To start this process teams must contact
covid19.testing@uefa.ch to be put in touch with relevant members of the UPAP. Any such UPAP recommendations are strictly advisory and it is the responsibility of the team to liaise with the competent local authorities, if necessary, for further steps (potentially both in the team’s home country in the match venue).
