Recently sick player, let him play? (1 Viewer)

In my opinion this is their choice, not yours. If they feel like they are well enough to come, they come. If they don’t, they don’t. There’s no way for you to know how sick they are.

lol! I got people who come to work who are obviously way too sick to be coming in, and they end up getting other people sick, causing more downtime. Based on that experience alone, you can't leave it up to the sick person to decide when they are "not sick".

I certainly wouldn't go this far. The host always controls who comes and goes and for whatever reasons they want.

Now if the question is what's best for the game/group, that's another matter now.

Hm, okay that's a fair point and I won't disagree with what you've said.

From my perspective, all throughout COVID (and not just poker games, birthday parties and get togethers and such), people will call me the day of or the morning of and say, "hey, i got a sore throat, i got a little cough, i got a little headache... can i still come?" Over time I found that question to be rather annoying - be responsible enough to make the decision for yourself.

Yeah, it's a little different when someone only may be sick, but the guy in my OP had been very sick for several days and claimed 3 days before the game that he was 'feeling much better'. I'm sorry, but if you've been sick enough to stay home from work for a week, you are most likely still contagious with whatever crap you got 3 days later even though you 'feel better'.
