The NFL’s New Covid Play & Small Fries Only

Dr. Syra Madad, senior director of the system-wide pathogens program at New York City Health and Hospitals, considers the pandemic still in its “emergency” phase as cases of omicron outpace those of other variants. But, the game must go on--for the NFL, at least. While the NHL and college basketball teams have paused and postponed their games, the National Football League is taking a new approach to managing Covid-19 cases after over 100 players in the league tested positive. HGGC president and former 49ers quarterback Steve Young and Integrity Marketing Group CEO Bryan Adams discuss the NFL’s new pandemic strategy and Integrity’s $125 million payout to employees following an investment from Silver Lake. Plus, issues in the supply chain are causing issues for other chains…including McDonald’s, where a french fry shortage is hitting locations in Japan. In this episode:Bryan Adams, @IntegrityMGSteve Young, @SteveYoungQBDr. Syra Madad, @syramadadJoe Kernen, @JoeSquawkBecky Quick, @BeckyQuickAndrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkinKatie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
