We will soon have sneeze and cough thread.

Good, less work for me

Actually all these pandemic and postponement make the Tokyo Olympic a more legendary one. It definitely draws much more attention of the world. And it makes me even more determined to go to Japan next year to enjoy it. It’s somethings you can never miss. Maybe they will earn money and more reputable, more successful. Who knows.

Especially the U15 World School Games will be hit hard by this.

Every athlete who's doping ban ends in 2020.

Trading and eating wild life animal is truly must be banned. Actually it has been banned already. But it can't help fighting coronavirus immediately. Still need the effort of all mankind to contain it.

Well known kind of virus, some cases every year, high letality, transmissIon mainly through contact with rodent feces, urine, saliva. So stop eating rat's shit and everything will be ok. Worry about the other one.

Video just to show how our authorities solved the problem of mask wearing for the deaf interpreter with A classy protective shield

Not contagious between humans apparently. Thanks for the panic-inducing thread though.

Complete National ? lockdown for 21 days for the whole of India......

well, I am not a doctor or Indonesian expert. I can not make a prediction. But based on what I read, the Indonesian coach Hendry Saputra is already confirmed positive, I think he will be treated and other badminton team members will also be treated if symptom shows. If you and me already know this issue, the Indonesian people will care it much more than us. Also, from Jonatan Christie's IG, he is still cute and charming for me and made a ad for Li Ning.

Still remember the news Masayoshi Son the Japanese billionaire initially wanted to donate 10 millions testing kits to government but hugely scolded by Japanese people, saying that it will lead to huge amount people going to hospital and created chaos and panic, with huge amount of patients even may lead to the postponement or cancelation of Olympics. So he changed to donate face masks at the end. No worries now.

The postponement of Olympics will free the Japanese government. The focus will finally be back on coronavirus. I wonder if the steady linear growth of the cases will finally be an exponential one.

The games should have been postponed to October-November I feel. Now if there is an earthquake or tsunami next year in Japan or if China donates another new virus due to their foolishness of eating anything and everything there won't be any Olympics. So that's a 8 year drought of Olympic games .

Abe officially suggests one year postponement to IOC. I really don't like it personally. postpone to the end of the year is acceptable for me.

Hmm so to give you more insight: PDP means a sick person under surveillance. As of now, those who are back from Europe (both the senior and junior team) are quarantined in the national badminton center dorms. They still train regularly but separated with those who did not go to Europe. So PBSI did have their measures and they tried to have their players & coaches tested BUT this country stupidly prioritized those limited test kits to parliament members. You can't just abruptly send symptomatic people to any hospital too since there are only a few designated hospital to handle any suspect, it's a long wait both for suspects and those who are being tested. Yes, we are not ready at all and the mindset of average people here are not helping at all. The way how Indonesians react to the virus is able to make any Italian mayor ranting for 7 days straight and die from high blood pressure.

If situation goes very bad, they will be evacuated immediately. If still waiting for commercial flights, it means situation is still under control. They will just be fine, I still think so. Chinese are good at protecting themselves, hahaha.

Surely you don't expect them to cater to your extremely unique preferenes...? Nobody gives a damn about 2021 regional games or whatnot.

Great news for people from Wuhan and Hubei province. The lockdown of Hubei province except Wuhan will be lifted from 25th March, the lockdown of Wuhan bill be lifted from 8th April. The internal restrictions are being removed gradually these days such as public transportation, restaurants. More importantly, People can finally leave Wuhan from 8th April and go to wherever they want to.

The anglo army came out with guns blazing with their statements and Dick Pound. It's obvious the game will be postponed, we don't need them to tell us that it's all about their political sport agenda. Same as in Russia doping case. It's especially funny from UK given they didn't give two shits about the virus like a week ago.

FINA are first to say, they would move the 2021 World Aquatics Championships to a new date, after the Olympics move. http://fina.org/news/fina-statement-9 Every federation will now rearrange their championships for next year, which is the wright decision.

If it's a new virus spreading easily Tokyo Olympics may never happen

Think so too, Ha ha. Anything also can be created and put as a thread.

I guess this one should be HAVID-20?

I think the whole world will be in for another round of big trouble now. So terrible.

It's difficult for us but we are going well. For people in big cities it's OK. I'm in a rural area and no chance of online delivery. Also no grocery store or pharmacy store will be open with District commissners order.

They will be open. The district and local bodies are advised to facilitate home delivery as much as posible.

Not really. Changing literally everything to 2021 would cost a lot of money. I think there's nothing wrong with keeping the "Tokyo 2020" and "EURO 2020" names, that's how these events have been called for years now.

That is a masterpiece:

Rebeca Andrade in artistic gymnastics. I hope she stays healthy.

Apparently that's already solved, everything will stay with 2020

This also means we will get changed qualification systems for all sports and enjoy this whole process for another year at least something good...

ya almost official, just some paper work and other procedure to finalize I guess.

There's zero problem in enjoying yourself, just don't go and do it in groups and keep some distance I'm going for a run tomorrow, but here it's not very difficult to move a meter or so out of the way when passing someone.

That is surprisingly similar indeed

No updates of the Chinese players, either from their social platform accounts or media. Also not sure if they are still in England either. For young athletes, most of them are with mild symptoms and recover themselves. So I think they are fine.

They will sell the exact same game at full price next year and called Tokyo 2021. Nintendo

I very much don't @Griff88 is our Indonesian user

Of course the organization of those smaller events care about it, maybe some local people who are somehow involved as well. But on the general stage, probably not even 0,1% of the people who are interested in the Olympics even know of the existence of obscure things like Lusophone of Francophone Games.

It will probably disappear by itself, like Spanish flu did.

Let's take the whole China as an experiment. We are little rats now, some people fear and discriminate people leaving Hubei, but I'm totally OK with it. I hope people leaving Hubei will be equally treated, they shouldn't be hurt again and I tend to believe they are healthy enough to be 'released'.

I watched only the medal matches, there sadly no previous rounds on Olympic Channel so I didn´t know about Dlagnev injury. Thanks for the info

The IOC cannot postpone the Olympics! What will happen to all the copies of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 that will look outdated now?

I think the officiating was OK in that match, Ghasemi was passive and deserved those cautions, actually nobody expected him to even win a silver, Akgul was huge huge favorite against him. beating Petriashvili was already a huge achievement, well Dlagnev got injured in his QF match, if you watch his SF with Ghasemi, it was also the same story, in something like 30 seconds, that was stupid of Dlagnev to wrestle despite the injury and make himself looks like a fool

What kind of measures did Slovakia not take yet?

I don't think Norway plays as much of a role as they think they do in an Olympics without snow

No, you’re not old. You’re ancient
