The head of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Dana White said that he was recovered from the coronavirus. Reported by TMZ.
The 52-year-old promoter admitted he feels good. The COVID-19 test was negative, White said. He noted that he got rid of the disease on the fifth day after he passed a positive test for coronavirus.
The illness of the head of the UFC became known on December 1. White contracted the infection during the family’s Thanksgiving celebration. The American was vaccinated.
In August of this year, the head of the UFC spoke about the possible introduction of mandatory vaccinations for promotion fighters. The functionary said he would never force athletes to be vaccinated against the coronavirus.
The UFC is one of the few sports organizations that has held events amid the acute phase of the coronavirus pandemic. In particular, for international tournaments, the UFC organized a “fight island” in Abu Dhabi, where special security protocols are in force.
