Bingo, this is what I was trying to understand. In ‘theory’ it could be possible but it’s unlikely and they’re not willing to change everything for him. God forbid if this were Valieva, I am sure different steps might have been taken. Not criticising Russian Fed, I understand their decision.There is also a lengthy Russian article in sports.ru that states while Kolyada likely could have recovered in time to travel for the men's event, Russia didn't want to take any chances since it would impact his training and likely make him unavailable for the team event.

and Liza. Just saying.lets just hope he didnt infect anyone else, Mishin and Semenenko better stay in their own bubble and dont go other skaters coaching camps
This is so awful, I really feel for him. Such a beautiful skater, especially when he's on. I wish a speedy recovery for him and much better days ahead.В составе олимпийской сборной России произошла замена: Михаила Коляду заменил Евгений Семененко - Федерация фигурного катания на коньках России

Failed PCR test .
Edit: More details from Olympics.com. Kolyada is symptomatic.
Match TV confirmed positive tests for Egor Bazin and Denis Samokhin.Well, according to Vaitsekhovskaya, ice dance alternatives and their coach (one of Khuda/Bazin and Samokhin) also tested positive, and they have already arrived to Krasnoyarsk.
Isn't he Kazakova/Reviya's coach, too? Now I fear....Well, according to Vaitsekhovskaya, ice dance alternatives and their coach (one of Khuda/Bazin and Samokhin) also tested positive, and they have already arrived to Krasnoyarsk.
This seems ... harsh.There is also a lengthy Russian article in sports.ru that states while Kolyada likely could have recovered in time to travel for the men's event, Russia didn't want to take any chances since it would impact his training and likely make him unavailable for the team event.

This has got to be just absolutely gutting for these skaters. You work your whole life. You skate when you are tired. You skate when you fall. Everyday you get to the rink and skate, practice, try to perfect. All with an Olympic Dream.Kolyada has tested positive for ********* and is out of the Olympics.

Isn't he Kazakova/Reviya's coach, too?
Not mandatory, especially under these circumstances. However, the situation in Moscow itn't better, to say the truth.Edit: Yeah might definitely be better for StepBukhs to not go to Krasnoyarsk at this point. Or anyone. Is that an option or is it mandatory for them?
Totally understandable............tragic, but a harsh reality.There is also a lengthy Russian article in sports.ru that states while Kolyada likely could have recovered in time to travel for the men's event, Russia didn't want to take any chances since it would impact his training and likely make him unavailable for the team event.

A lot of people have been carping on how causal a lot of the Russian skating community has been about the crud. Having so many positives like this at this time does seem to suggest they were correct about this.Match TV confirmed positive tests for Egor Bazin and Denis Samokhin.
Танцор Егор Базин и тренер Денис Самохин сдали положительные тесты на коронавирус
По информации источников «Матч ТВ», еще двое членов российской команды по фигурному катанию сдали положительные тесты на коронавирус.beta.matchtv.ru
yeah, I think this is just the first we will see.And so it begins…..
No, no, no!!! Not StepBukin, please, after what they went through four years ago. The article is rather vague. Hope that they’re just skipping Krasnoyarsk and still going to Beijing.….: departure of dancing couple Stepanova and Bukin for Krasnoyarsk in question
….
I couldn't open the link, so I don't know what the article says.Notably, the article says this happened before he left for the training camp in Krasnoyarsk.
I think Eteri is going to maintain her bubble. Mishin‘s group has always been lax with Covid. I think Eterie will do everything possible to ensure that her pair team and female skaters will be Covid free so they can compete.To be honest, seeing how lax a lot of the Russian team and journalists were in Tallinn I am not surprised at the further positives.
I hope StepBuk skip Krasnoyarsk. Also everyone who is not already there.After the positive cases in Krasnoyarsk:
Irina Zhuk: departure of dancing couple Stepanova and Bukin for Krasnoyarsk in question
Жук ответила на вопрос о вылете Степановой и Букина на сбор в Красноярск
Танцевальная пара Александра Степанова/Иван Букин решает, стоит ли лететь на сбор в Красноярск после случаев коронавируса у фигуристов из олимпийской сборной... РИА Новости Спорт, 25.01.2022rsport.ria.ru
Kolyada didn’t go to the training camp because he tested positive before that. Unfortunately there are other positive tests for people there.I couldn't open the link, so I don't know what the article says.
The really bad thing is he may have infected others at the training camp.
Well, they were supposed to leave for Krasnoyarsk tomorrow but as Zhuk mentioned, their departure is now in question. I'm sure they will be smart enough to skip it!!No, no, no!!! Not StepBukin, please, after what they went through four years ago. The article is rather vague. Hope that they’re just skipping Krasnoyarsk and still going to Beijing.
They should cancel the training camp, let everyone return home, and train at their home rinks.Sport Express is reporting that a third ******** case is at the Krasnoyarsk camp, and it's in the Mishin coaching staff.
