Ohio State had voluntary workouts start last week for the football team, and according to a report, they required players sign risk waivers for the corona virus:
Referred to as a so-called Buckeye Pledge, it asks players to “pledge to take responsibility for my own health and help stop the spread of the COVID-19.”
The document goes on to warn athletes that “although the university is following the coronavirus guidelines issued by the CDC and other experts to reduce the spread of infection, I can never be completely shielded from all risk of illness caused by COVID-19 or other infections.”
Seriously? Unpaid to take the risk & “voluntary” (not) workouts and OSU forced players to sign a waiver. Shame. https://t.co/iyubrOv5sV
