Miguel Braga for Unilabs: «Would you mind answering? The DGS email was sent yesterday at 1:30 pm »- Sporting

Miguel Braga, responsible for the communication of Sporting, returned to the case of Nuno Mendes and Sporar leaving a message on Twitter addressed to Unilabs-Portugal.

DGS is still waiting for Unilabs-Portugal to send it directly the email it sent to Sporting’s clinical director, in which they assumed that Sporar and Nuno Mendes tests were false positives. Would you mind answering? The DGS email was only sent yesterday at 1:30 pm, “it reads. The General Directorate of Health (DGS) confirmed today that it has not received a” timely response “from Unilabs about the false positives of the Sporting Nuno Mendes players and Sporar, which prevent them from playing in the League Cup. The DGS begins by recalling that, “to date, the epidemiological investigation of covid-19, including epidemiological surveys and risk assessment with respect to football clubs, It is the responsibility of the territorially competent Health Authority “.

Specifically regarding the two Sporting players who will have had a positive result, the Territorially Competent Health Authority, which is in charge of determining the measures, asked the medical director of Unilabs-Portugal for information on whether the analytical results of the two players who were being evaluated they constituted false positives and did not obtain a timely response “, indicates the note of the entity.

The DGS clarification corroborates the statements made by the president of Sporting, Frederico Varandas, who on Tuesday night, after his team beat FC Porto 2-1 in the semi-final of the League Cup, said a document that It says “instead of false positives, I wrote that there was an error”.
