"It's my body and my Covid," he said. "I can give it to whoever I want." He also said he never lied about his status, noting that he took all of his teammates into a huddle, "got their faces three inches from my wet mouth and told them, 'Trust me, I'm more or less immunised. Go team'."
"People can talk all they want," he continued, "but at the end of the day, my record is still seven and one. Meaning, of the eight people I've infected, seven are fine."
