🇫🇷 #ParisRoubaixFemmes No @marianne_vos in Paris-Roubaix. “The disappointment is enormous. I had been looking forward to this race.”
Marianne Vos tests positive for Covid-19 and will miss Paris-Roubaix

After Wout van Aert's positive Covid test right before the Tour des Flandres, Jumbo-Visma have been struck with similar bad luck today as Marianne Vos had the same outcome last minute for the second edition of the Paris-Roubaix Femmes.
Despite a season that has yet to see her at her best level, she was set to start Paris-Roubaix as one of the big favourites. She has only raced Strade Bianche, Gent-Wevelgem and the Tour des Flandres this season, however a runner-up spot in the second race proved she had the legs to contest the races with the best.
“The disappointment is enormous. I had been looking forward to this race. When I tested positive this morning, the world came crashing down. But I support the team’s policy. I should not take any risks with my health. I’m going home, I’m taking a rest and I hope I keep feeling well," Vos said in a press release.

- For an agent, the more transfers with higher salary there are the better earnings they have. A bonus for the transfer plus a percentage of the salary.abstractengineer24-11-2024

- When a guy like Madoff gets done do you spout off about all the others trying to fraud in a lesser style who didn’t really gain much from their efforts? It’s like taxes, if we’re going to pursue everyone equally we may as well never start. I’m fine that we start at the top, there’s plenty of work there. Once we’ve caught the big cheats then we can see how valuable it is going after smaller ones.Mistermaumau24-11-2024

- Yes, thank you Maria. He has a fractured skull but no pain or sequels and there should be no consequences after the small bump deflates. If anything, he is more likely to get something from the radiation he received when they “investigated” for abuse, CT scan, MRI, a dozen x-rays and he will have to have a follow up scan too. But as said, all due to childbirth, if we hadn’t noticed or worried and not taken him to emergencies, he’d have had no tests at all and instead of one to check the fracture wasn’t serious he got far more :-(Mistermaumau24-11-2024
- Obviously there is the question of enormous willpower but some injuries are extremely specific. A torn meniscus for example can function pretty well during cycling whilst making it close to impossible to go up or down stairs or walk normally.Mistermaumau24-11-2024
- First of all, I hope now all is ok with your baby!. Yeah, about to not accept foreign phone number is a big problem also for me. I have economic interests in 2 countries, I think that all can be ok with my Italian number... but NO! The world is globalized but not for bureaucracies.
