Warriors Kerr's COVID-19 positive absence from G4, why players who come into contact with him don't have to quarantine

There is a question here, why do the players who contact Cole not have to be quarantined, is the commercial value really so important compared to the epidemic?

The NBA's previous quarantine rule was that once the test result was positive, the player needed to be quarantined for 10 days, and needed to test negative twice on the same day before returning.

But after being dissatisfied by the players' union, on December 28, the famous NBA reporter Wo Shen reported that the NBA teams received a memorandum from the league's official and the players' union, and the league informed the teams that the vaccinated NBA players and coaches could be released from quarantine 6 days after the health and safety agreement was triggered, provided that the latest test results showed that they were no longer contagious.

According to sources, the shortening of the quarantine period to 6 days is based on expert research and data, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reduced the quarantine period for positive people from 10 days to 5 days. According to the data, strengthening has obvious effects on the removal of viruses from the body.

According to this point of view, the Warriors Kerr will probably not go with the team to the home of the Memphis Grizzlies in the next game, and I don't know if the Warriors can stand it.
