And unfortunately, the fallout has now extended beyond Gobert. According to 247Sports, a small child who received an autograph from Gobert has also tested positive for the illness.
Gobert took to his social media to apologize for his earlier recklessness:
“I hope my story serves as a warning and causes everyone to take this seriously.” Gobert wrote on Instagram. “I will do whatever I can to support using my experience as (a) way to educate others and prevent the spread of this virus.”
