Australia’s Tahli Gill and Dean Hewitt will be able to compete in the curling mixed double tournament at the Winter Games in Beijing after the Medical Expert Panel (MEP) ruled that Gill could compete despite a positive Covid-19 test.
Gill was placed in isolation in the Chinese capital after several of her coronavirus tests returned positive late on Saturday. The 22-year-old, who said that she had been “heartbroken” by the development, was already packing her bags and getting ready to return to Australia.
But good news suddenly came on Sunday afternoon, with the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) revealing that it had “just received an email from the Chinese Public Health System advising that the pair can continue under the Close Contact provisions.”
According to the AOC, the Medical Expert Panel had examined Gill’s tests from the last 24 hours and “determined that they fell into an acceptable range.”
