Golden State Warriors guard Damion Lee said he tested positive for COVID-19 despite being fully vaccinated. Lee is considered one of the rare “breakthrough cases”: one of only 6,000 or so people who have tested positive for the virus after going through the full vaccination process, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.<\/p>\n

“I did test positive for COVID about two weeks ago,” Lee said prior to Thursday night’s 118-97 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. “I did get the vaccine the middle, end of March, but essentially this was just a rare breakthrough case. … Right now, there’s no timeline in the immediate future for me coming back and playing.”<\/p>\n

Lee, who hasn’t played since April 19, said he received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which requires only one dose, on March 22. He tested positive for COVID-19 on April 21 and experienced a variety of symptoms.”I had headache, chills, sneezing, congestion, soreness, body aches,” Lee said while reading a list off his phone to keep track of everything he dealt with. “It felt like I was hit by a car. Like hit by two cars at once every step I took. It hurt, it was pain, soreness. It felt like there was a weight on my chest for a couple of days, like it was just hard to breathe.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
