Talk that NZ won't have a flag bearer at all but an official doing it and that no athletes will be present at the ceremony. Surely that's not the case, but if so NZ's paranoia with Covid from Stalinda Ardern has filtered through to the NZOC. 

Andorra said no athletes will be at the opening ceremony as well.

I strongly suspect we will not be present too. We usually announce flag bearer the day when final team is named, however no flag bearer was announced today.

if you think she's paranoid and you have enough of her and her style, please, can you borrow her to Italy? we do really need someone like her...she would be perfect as our new President of the Republic, instead of those idiots they're trying to elect starting from today...

there's a good chance that Michela Moioli is going to replace Sofia Goggia as our Flagbearer at the Opening ceremony (Italy will definitely have an athlete carrying the Flag and a few more walking behind her)...

C'mon, you don't like Dino Zoff or Alfonso Signorini?
