TOKYO - Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said for the first time on Monday that the Tokyo Olympic Games may need to be postponed if the event cannot be held in its “complete form” due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Abe said that while cancelling the Games was not an option, a delay was now on the cards if that was the only way to hold the event in its complete form. Under mounting pressure from athletes, federations and national committees to postpone the Games, the IOC did a partial U-turn on Sunday after long insisting, with Tokyo organizers, that the Games would go ahead as planned.
Finally
Ya think?
Really?🤔
May? Really? 🙄🙄
menurut ngana? mau nambah nyebarin virus ke orang2 be?
May be?!!
But is that not a responsible thing to do? We should always allowed for common sense to prevail. We look forward to all forms of entertainment social or sports but we are going through a changing world (a game changer) yet we are slow in respecting it all.
Sinethugcat make it next year - easy enough.
It's funny how greed and desire for profit can make people act irresponsibly. It is understandable. It is human nature. This was not managed well from a PR perspective. These olympic people come across as tone-deaf.
Close the games down there is no appetite its verging on money over life and health looks like greed to me.
For sure. There’s no other option
Surprised it’s not the iocmedia postponing but the actual country 2020Olympics coronavirus worldpandemic
Has to be postponed, it remains in air for at least 3 hours.
Must be
Sensible call by Japan.
They have to, if more countries start threatening to pull out like Canada did, then soon enough there won't be many countries left.
Ci sono arrivati. .... finalmente
Thanks China for this pandemic , stopping all sports, social activities. WuhanCoronaVirus COVIDー19
Oh
If you let me quarantine the online betting community they would have solutions that would satisfy even draconian greenies like me. Not politically LMAOFATC. I retired my libertarian instincts but not the biases apparently.
IOC has gotten iniciative.🐸
Add more cameras. No spectators. Athletes arrive early and quarantined.
Not may be, TokyoOlympics is going to suspend! COVID19outbreak
Push it a year. We will all tune in.
It's just a sport, not a war. Why should we risk our lives? Abe and the Japanese bet their fate on the Olympics. But we shouldn't do that.
May!! Like MAY
That’s the best thing you can do during this world crisis humanity is at risk save the world
Yeah, looks like the government will drag this closure out
Why is this even in doubt? Lockdown now or die.... simples
Quiere la mano de trump...
😠👎😷
