Last year,

was supposed to start on 7/24. Then, the 7 day avg of new cases < 1/ 100K ppl. There were no vaccines then & test positivity was around 17%. On 7/17/21 the 7 day avg of new cases is 2.25/100K ppl & ~13% positivity & ~22% of the country vaccinated (2/13).

For many athletes,

is the ultimate stage. For public health experts: the ultimate test. Organizers are confident protocols will keep the games safe, but ~80% of the country prefer it not to happen. Tokyo remains in a state of emergency ipsos.com/ipsos-mori/en- (3/13).

From highs to lows: interest in the Tokyo Olympics varies around the globe

Life in the Olympic village is designed as bubble: w/minimal contact between athletes and the local community. Athletes and staff are to use designated travel for specified locations (4/13).

Vaccines are recommended but not required. B/C many countries don't have enough, the IOC worried it was unfair to give to athletes ahead of health care workers and other vulnerable ppl. So the IOC set up their own vaccine centers olympics.com/ioc/news/hubs- (7/13)

You made a good point. I "daily antigen tests & if positive a confirmatory PCR test" does not make any sense. Sorry because, in Japan, anti-COVID measures have been carried out by idiots. @drsanjaygupta twitter.com/drsanjaygupta/…

In Japan, the theory of PCR test suppression is prevalent, with scholars pandering to the government saying that PCR sensitivity is 70% and the mainstream media quoting them.

did you know their antigen tests are crappy “made in Japan” kit? If you use saliva (as they do now) the sensitivity for this particular brand is so low: less than 30%. The Japanese government want to push saliva antigen test of this particular swampy brand.

Japan strongly insisted on not to use mixed (mid nasal and deep throat on one swab) and turned away travelers tested in US saying mixed specimen is not allowed but they are okay with saliva as specimen which is very odd. They also okayed on antigen on saliva for preboarding test.
