Case of COVID for gold medalist

Olympic gold-medal swimmer Madison Wilson of Australia has been hospitalized for treatment of COVID-19.

Wilson, who is fully vaccinated, withdrew from the International Swim League competition in Naples, Italy,.

Wilson wrote on her Instagram account that she was “moved into hospital for further care and observation.” She said a full recovery is expected.

“I’m taking some time to rest and I’m sure I’ll be ready to bounce back in no time,” Wilson said in a post Sunday.

The 27-year-old was part of a powerhouse Australian women’s team that competed at the Tokyo Games. She won a gold medal in the 4x100-meter freestyle and picked up a bronze in the 4x200 free relay.

At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Wilson collected a gold and a silver in the relays.

In the ISL, she’s a member of the LA Current. The team competed this past weekend in Naples.

“Even though I am double-vaccinated and took the right precaution set in place through the ISL, I have managed to fall to this virus,” she said. “It’s been a crazy few months and I believe being run down physically and mentally may have made me more susceptible.”

She added: “I feel extremely unlucky but I do believe this is a huge wakeup call. Covid is a serious thing and when it comes it hits very hard. I’d be stupid not to say I wasn’t scared.” NHL: The Arizona Coyotes are bringing back their popular Kachina logo, announcing a rebranding that will change their primary logo back to the angular canine caricature.
