The 2026 Winter Olympic Games Illness Tracking Thread
By: Data Report Date: February 1, 2026, 10:04 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
The 2026 Winter Olympic Games will be taking place in Milan and
Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, from February 6 to February 22, 2026.
This will be the tracking thread for any illness that pops up
before, during, and after the Olympic Games. The definition of
illness before the games is anyone who has to withdraw and not
attend due to an illness. Based on previous Olympics during the
Covid era, I suspect we will see many illness outbreaks.

This did not take long; we already have our first Olympic
related illness.
"Two staff members working with Australia's Winter Olympic team
have tested positive to COVID-19.
The individuals, who will not be competing at the 25th edition
of the Olympic Winter Games, were symptomatic and tested
positive on January 28 and 31, with measures in place to contain
any possible spread of infection. "

Stolz wins 500, opts not to race the 1,500 due to fatigue from
illness
Jordan Stolz won the men's 500-meter race at the Pettit National
Ice Center on Sunday early afternoon January 4 in Milwaukee.
He pulled the best time of the day at 34.761 – even though he
has been sick

Milwaukee Journal Sentine Jan. 4, 2026
For that race – which took place later Sunday afternoon – Stolz
will just go to the line but not skate the full race.It’s an
option that he has – and that he earned – being a pre-qualifier.
Stolz was so dominant all season long as the No. 1 ranked points
earner in the ISU World Cup season that he basically just needed
to show up during these trials. The reason for his decision is
simple. Stolz isn’t feeling well. He’s sick, and congested, and
it is clear that he’s not his normal self.
“Yeah, I’m not to happy with 9.8,” said Stolz on Sunday after
the race. “9.8 is three-tenths off where it should be. I’m a
little tired from training and then from getting a little
sick."...“See how I feel,” said Stolz. “I’ve just done a lot of
training and coming in to this weekend I had a small cold. I
didn’t get the recovery I needed in the two days leading up to
competition. And after the 1,000 yesterday, I feel pretty
tired.”

Rosie Brennan qualifies for third Olympics despite World Cup
absences
Avatar photo by Jack Singer January 30, 2026
Park City cross country skier Rosie Brennan qualified for her
third Olympic Games on Jan. 21, despite missing two World Cups
this season.
Brennan, 37, has battled a lingering mystery illness for about a
year now.
"it’s also been immensely challenging to push on when I know my
body isn’t where it should be.”
Brennan said it’s been incredibly tough to navigate the
ever-changing nature of what her body can and cannot handle due
to the illness."

Finland's women's hockey team cancels Olympic practice after
stomach bug affects players
The Associated Press · Posted: Feb 04, 2026
Finland's national women's hockey team cancelled practice
Wednesday due to a stomach illness affecting at least four
players, a team spokesman confirmed to The Associated Press.
"We're reviewing a difficult situation," Henna Malmberg said a
day before Finland is scheduled to open the Milan-Cortina
Olympics against defending champion Canada in Italy.
Finland's national public broadcaster Yle first reported four
players experienced stomach problems overnight due to what's
believed to be a norovirus. The players have spent the day
isolated in their rooms, the broadcaster reported.

Some Olympic athletes are taking extra precautions in 2026 so we
have to include this special Data Report message and news report
brief to pay homage to these Olympic athletes who are masking

COMMENT:
Some of the Olympics athletes are taking precautions. Excellent!
Here's a link to inspire the Olympic athletes to mask. I wear a
mask during strenuous exercise and athletics so here's my
"Masked Man's Bicycle Ride And Other Videos set to Music To
Inspire Others To Mask" LINK:

So that I may make a point, Let us assume for the time being,
one of the reasons the Olympic athletes are wearing masks is
because when they get covid they get disqualified in the
Olympics..the athletes aren't able to do what they love because
they got sick,... so now some athletes are masking and taking
precautions so that they can do what they love ..That's what I
do! I wear a mask and do the things I love like Bicycling! In
other words, I wear a mask for my health so that I am always
able to do the things I love like ride a bicycle plus I am
always safer going in unchartered territory in my mask while I
ride the bicycle.. I wear a mask for my health so that I can
always do the things I love...You see I mask because I take
everything I do in life as seriously as these Olympic athletes
who are taking precautions take the Olympics. Olympic athletes
who take precautions are masking because they love the Olympics
and want to be in the Olympics while I am masking because I love
life and want to participate in life freely without being
disqualified or hindered by ill health or disease. Athletes love
the Olympics so much they will mask for it and I love Life and
everything I do enough to secure the continuation of my favorite
activities by masking for those activities! Some athletes love
the Olympics enough to mask for it and I love life enough to
mask for it! :)

Hey 'Sport'!, Wear a mask for your health, & see if you can even
keep up with me on a bicycle!,
The Masked Man
P.S. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cureworth a
pound of cure" is a famous proverb coined by Benjamin Franklin
in 1735, signifying that it is easier and more efficient to stop
a problem from happening than to fix it after it has occurred.
Originally intended for fire safety, it now commonly highlights
the importance of preventive health measures and proactive
planning.
...Masked Man's 3M 7502 respirator mask typically weighs
approximately 4.8 to 5 ounces so that is worth several pounds of
cure!
They also say laughter is the best medicine...(wear a mask and
take your medicine for your health regardless as to if this
video is funny or not!)
