Spanish national Fabian Ruiz receives a vaccine against COVID-19 during a team vaccination in Madrid.
–
This happened after two players were isolated after positive tests for COVID-19.
The leadership of the national team said that the vaccination was carried out by paramedics from the Spanish Armed Forces in the team’s training facility near Madrid.
However, experts warn that last-minute vaccination does not make much sense, as it does not provide immediate protection against covid. On the contrary, it can bring complications in case of possible adverse reactions.
Players may experience fatigue or decreased performance. During the championships, the Spaniards will also probably have to find a date for the second dose.
Spain will join the inaugural meeting of the “Slovak” E-group against Sweden on Monday in Seville. The match against Štefan Tarkovič’s charges awaits them at the same place on June 23.

Contumacy? The Spaniards sketched a black scenario after a positive captain
The preparation for the tournament was disrupted this week by the positive result of captain Sergio Busquets and defender Diego Llorente.
However, Llorente’s subsequent tests were negative, so his initial positive result may have been wrong. The team said that the defender will be able to return soon.
However, busquets must undergo a ten-day quarantine. According to the Spaniards, he feels good and hopes to return during the tournament.
On Saturday, the management of the Spanish national team sent home players from the reserve team, whom they called this week as an alternative in case of the spread of the coronavirus in the A-team.
Coach Luis Enrique called in six players with previous experience in the “A” and eleven players from the under-21 team after having passed a positive Busquets test last Sunday and on Tuesday in Llorente.
The Spanish players also passed tests with negative results for three consecutive days.
