Damn right , life goes on
Beaten by taking away crowds, freedom of movement, spontaneity, social and physical interaction, and people’s faces? Sounds more like the virus has beaten them.
Instead of increasing COVID-19 cases in Tokyo.
Japan showed the way to the civilized world that, we are not going to be defeated.
Beaten with no one in the stadiums and stay at home orders? What a stupid article.
