    No, it won't. You live in an alternate reality if you think that's possible. We are living in a world where Qatar is hosting a FIFA World Cup while doing much worse things than letting a full stadium of vaccinated people spectate a match. UEFA is doing literally the opposite of what you are saying, they were even suggesting that they will take away the matches from hosts who aren't letting any spectators in.

    I try with Italy
     
    Archery: 0 (chance with Nespoli in individual and mixed team) 
    Athletics 0-1  best chance Tamberi, small chance in 20 km race walking
    Boxing : 1  i think 1 girl could take it
    Canoeing sprint: 0 (small chances for k2 1000)
    Cycling MTB: 0 (small chance for men) 
    Cycling road 1-2 : best chance Gannain ITT and Longo Borghini in women
    Cycling track 2-3 :  men team pursuit and omnium women, chance also in women madison
    Fencing 4-6:  individual foil men, team foil women, team men epee, team men sarbre, individual women epee
    Gymnastic 1:  best chance is Lodadio men rings, very slim chance for girls 
    Rhythmics 0: i don't think the medal will arrive but the Italian girls have chance in groups
    Judo 1 : best chance are Lombardo and Giuffrida, then we have some good outsiders. 
    Karate 2-3 : Busà, Bottaro, Crescenzo, Semeraro (if qualifies), Busato are all medal contenders. 
    Rowing 3: quadruple, 2-, 2xpl, 4-   (3 of these must take medal) 
    Sailing 1 : Nacra 17 the best chance, very good outsiders both 470 and both Rsx
    Shooting 3 : women trap, mixed trap and 1 surprising medal in pistol
    Sport climbing 0 : i don't think in medals but Rogora can go for a top 8
    Swimming 5-6 : 2 from Paltrinieri, 1 from Quadarella, 1 from Detti, 1 from breastroke, 1 from Bruni 10km
    Taekwondo: 1 Dell'aquila 
    Tennis 0 : i don't think the medal is possible but this is definitely the best moment in last 40 years for men tennis, probably the worst for women. 
    Volleyball: 1 women team
    Waterpolo 0 : i don't think in medal but our team will be competitive for sure. 
    Weightlifting 0 : I would never have thought to speak about weightlifting in medal projections in my life and I don't think the medal will come, but if Pizzolato repeats 370 kg it will be a medal, also Zanni will go for a top 6.
    Wrestling 1 : ok, Chamizo. 
     
    I think it's time to reach and try to go over the 30 medals, the big problem will be the gold medals, I don't see many of them.

    Difficult to say, he should be good for European spot if Orsag stay in top 8 and Mart Seim doesn't show in Colombia.

    The Turkish guy will overtake Zanni, but I think both will finish in top 8 and so also Kingue Matam will fly to Tokyo(he managed to defend some points from Georgia) , the French girl in59 kg I think she will qualify too. There is still the Colombian tournament for European weightlifters but I don't think it will change a lot.

    They are 1000 direct points, but usually the ranking worked in 12 months period, so every month the shooters lost 1/12 of the points obtained the month before but nowadays I don't know if they will froze the ranking after New Delhi, the April one, it's not clear.

    If Italy is a country that can't handle hosting alpine skiing races (but only alpine skiing, but all snow sports races) I don't  know which country could handle, for sure not Germany.

    It will be better to wait the next ranking that should be the last one, every shooter will lose some points and it's a very long work to try to predict the definitive ranking
