An ice hockey match at the Winter Olympics in Beijing was delayed for an hour on Monday before players returned to the ice wearing face masks.
Canada’s women’s ice hockey team took on the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) in the preliminary round of the event, however after the ROC reportedly failed to return COVID-19 test results to their opponents, the Canadians refused to make their way onto the ice
The refusal came after six members of the ROC squad had been placed in isolation last week after testing positive for the virus.
