BEIJING, January 29, Sergey Yaremenko. Russian hockey players were asked to reduce to a minimum communication and representatives of other delegations at the Olympics in order to avoid the risk of contracting the coronavirus, said the head coach of the team Yevgeny Bobariko. Earlier on Saturday, the Russian national team, by decision of the coaches, canceled the planned test match against the Czechs. According to a source, Russian hockey players Angelina Goncharenko and Diana Farkhutdinova have tested positive for coronavirus. The Russian women's ice hockey team starts at the Olympics on February 4 with a match against the Swiss team. «We go, see each other. True, inside the team they asked to minimize communication with people from other delegations. We must take care of ourselves. The situation is difficult. We must maintain our health in perfect order. The less communication, the easier it will be to live on,» Bobariko told reporters.
