This can't be right

If training is resumed before social distancing rules are relaxed, BBC Sport understands players will be tested for coronavirus twice a week and would be screened for symptoms every day. All tests would be carried out by health professionals at a drive-through NHS testing facility that each club would have access to.

The above is in a bbc article about the premier league resuming. Now, I know testing has been ramped up, but my understanding is that everyone else needs to be symptomatic to be tested - NHS staff working with coronavirus patients aren't tested twice a week, care home staff or people caring for vulnerable people aren't tested twice a week to make sure they aren't spreading it without knowing. This can't be correct, surely?

They seem to have their own rules

Look for the money. Someone, somewhere Rupert Murdoch probably influential with government, stands to make a big loss if Premiership football doesn't resume, otherwise they wouldn't bother. So they'll stand on their heads to get them playing again. If I was a footballer, I wouldn't be best pleased.
