Now, whether or not they are here to stay, that's a different question. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athletes in particular. A lot of them stand to lose their once in a lifetime chance to become Olympians. Most of all those who achieved a fluke qualification - Zambian women's football team comes to mind. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vektor 3,177 Posted August 28, 2020 #1517 Share Posted August 28, 2020 With the resignation of Abe, we are one step closer to the cancellation of the Games. This can end up as the final nail in the coffin for the event depending on who will be the next PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If some vaccine is widely recognized and accepted by the year end, the Olympic is still possible. I remember Japan just said hopefully vaccine available for all citizens before mid-2021. It sounds like a pre-condition for the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see from where you got such baseless info or if it was just made by you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
