The League said Monday that out of 33,174 tests administered to team personnel since the teams entered the bubbles July 26, zero were positive for COVID-19.
..they had spent 65 days in the bubble, isolated from family and friends and the outside world, playing without fans in the stands
People couldn't come and go. The few who did leave and return, or enter from the outside, had to isolate themselves and pass three COVID-19 tests 48 hours apart within seven days before arrival. Then they had to quarantine in their hotel rooms for four days and pass four more tests. Then they could leave their rooms only for essential work for three days afterward.
To move in the bubble, everyone had to get a health pass every 12 hours by answering a questionnaire on a smartphone app and having their temperature taken at a touch-free, automated kiosk. Everyone had to wear a mask. Everyone had to socially distance. Everyone had to wash or sanitize their hands.
Meanwhile, cleaning crews sterilized everything, from the locker rooms between games and practices, to the benches and penalty boxes between periods.
