On January 2, according to the official microblog of Paris Saint-Germain, Messi, who was on vacation in Argentina, tested positive for the new crown and is currently self-isolating and actively recovering. The top star "Boss Mei" was unfortunately recruited, causing a lot of shock in the sports circle.
Who infected Messi? A DJ accused of being a "suspect"
After Messi was diagnosed, new questions were born: Who infected Messi? Netizens began to search around for clues, looking for the "number one suspect".
According to the Sun, in early December 2021, Messi and several other Argentine stars of the Paris Saint-Germain side returned to South America on private jets to celebrate Christmas during the winter holidays in Ligue 1.
Messi spent the Christmas holidays in his hometown of Rosario and attended several parties with his wife, Antonella, and also invited the famous "Palm Trees" and Fer Palacio as a DJ to a musical party. From the photos on the spot, everyone sang and danced enthusiastically and interacted intimately, but no one wore a mask.

As soon as the incident came out, many people pointed the finger at Phil Palacio, and the DJ who was keen to get together was the first to bear the brunt of it and became the number one suspect.
Before joining a party with Messi, 31-year-old Fair Palacio had attended the coscu Army awards, an esports competition. After the awards were awarded, the organizers confirmed that several of the guests present (without specific information) tested positive for the virus.
It was at the party a few days later that Phil Palacio attended and posted a photo of himself with Messi, the two intimately shoulder to shoulder, and the DJ wrote: "I saw the best dance performance – thank you Messi's family for the invitation." ”

Time Warner's cable sports channel reported that a few days ago, DJ Palacio has denied that he infected Messi. In a video posted on social media platforms, he said that he had received a lot of bad private messages, the rhetoric was full of threats and insults, and some people thought that he was responsible for Messi's infection with the virus.
"I was on the hot search for it and they said I infected him. They even called me 'murderer'. Because I had to go to Uruguay, yesterday I had my nucleic acid tested and I didn't have COVID-19. Phil Palacio said.
On Jan. 2, on social media, Phil Palacio showed off his COVID-19 test report, which showed it as negative, writing: "I am not infected with Messi. ”
Weak awareness of epidemic prevention? Argentina added more than 20,000 yuan per day
"Obviously, Messi didn't know when he was infected." Spain's newspaper Olle reported that his personal doctor thought the likelihood of infection on December 25 last year was low because the party was held outdoors and most of the guests who attended were tested for the virus.
After returning to his hometown of Rosario, Messi has been with his wife, children, parents, brothers, and uncles. He attended his nephew Tommy's 19th birthday party, along with the band and DJ Palacio, which was estimated to be attended by hundreds of people.
On December 28 and 29 last year, Messi underwent a nucleic acid test. The test results were abnormal, which means that Messi may be infected with the new crown virus. Since then, Messi has not attended any social events and has begun to quarantine.
The reporter noted that Messi and his wife Antonella posted a group photo on social networks on the 27th of last year, but since the 28th of last year, Messi has not published a photo with his family, and the subsequent posts use the same photos.
It is worth mentioning that in all the recent family gatherings and party photos, Messi and her family did not wear masks, but were in close contact with others. The current epidemic in South America and Argentina is very serious, and the latest data show that Argentina added 20,502 new confirmed cases on January 3, and the cumulative number of confirmed cases has exceeded 5.73 million.
In the severe current situation of the epidemic, Messi did not attach importance to epidemic prevention, did not protect himself and his family, and as a public figure, he did not establish an image of active epidemic prevention, and finally did not survive the infection with the new crown virus.
Currently, Messi is in quarantine in Rosario, and the day before new year, he wrote on social platforms: "I can only thank you for everything I have lived in this 2021. But a lot of people have had a bad time because of the 'nasty' virus. I hope everyone can be healthy in 2022, and this is my New Year's wishes. Embrace everyone! ”
When will it return to the greenery? Grand Paris is currently missing four generals
Fans are concerned, when will Messi return to the football field? On January 2, Paris Saint-Germain coach Mauricio Pochettino said Messi would only return to Paris after testing negative for nucleic acid.
In the Paris Saint-Germain team, Messi is not the only one who has been recruited. On the evening of January 2, Paris Saint-Germain officially announced that Messi was missing a positive covid-19: the four players who were positive for COVID-19 were Messi, Bernat, Rico and Bitumazala. They have begun to self-isolate and are actively returning to treatment.
According to Le Ole, Argentine star Lionel Messi did not return to Paris from Argentina after the Christmas holiday, which means that he will miss the French Cup match at Paris Saint-Germain. But there are questions about catching up with next week's league match against Lyon.
Recently, claudio Tapia, president of the Argentine Football Association (AFA), sent condolences to the Argentine captain, saying that he contributed to the Albicelest team winning the Copa America in July.
"Dear Messi, I hope you recover as soon as possible and defeat the virus in the easiest way possible. We are waiting for you here, enjoying your charm again and putting on this robe that everyone loves very much. Claudio Tapia said.
