Jonathan Vadnai, who traveled to the Tokyo Olympics as an assistant to his brother, Benjamin Vadnai, who started in the Laser Standard, was separated from the team, the secretary general of the Hungarian Sailing Association said on Wednesday. András Holczhauser said that Jonathan Vadnai may have come into contact with a coronavirus infected during his trip, so he was separated from the team, moved to a separate room and transported to the port separately.
According to the Secretary General, Jonathan Vadnai has been vaccinated against coronavirus, and his PCR test on Tuesday also became negative.
According to the information of the MVSZ, Jonathan Vadnai was placed in a ten-day, special quarantine, he was asked not to leave his accommodation, but he could attend the trainings, but he could only approach its location by private transfer.
“The situation is extremely strange because they can’t share any specifics with us on the matter
– said Tamás Kelemen, the team leader of the Hungarian sailors. “All of Jonathan’s tests are negative, and no one from the team he traveled to here with the scene has been quarantined. That is incomprehensible in itself, but the worst part is that they do not provide information or information. ”
He added that Jonathan Vadnai has to eat alone, but he is lowered into the gym.
“Unfortunately he couldn’t even take part in a training session because they couldn’t solve the private transfer for him. And I suggested in vain that I take him to the training, it would have been irregular because of the protocol. Unfortunately, we can’t say that the locals dominate the situation yet, but we try to react flexibly and patiently to things, “said Tamás Kelemen.
According to MVSZ, the situation does not affect the preparation of Benjamin Vadnai, who trains with the international team and the other two competitors, Mária Érdi (Laser Radial) and Zsombor Berecz (Finndingi), are also working according to plan. Surveys begin on Thursday, and local meteorologists predict a very strong slice for the first days of the race.
He participates in Benjamin Vadnai’s second Olympics after winning the national team against his brother-in-law World and European Championship medalist. Laser Standard class races begin on Sunday.
