The athletes’ village in Tokyo is open ten days before the start of the games. The athletes can expect an atmosphere of strict regulation: no hugs, no shaking hands – two meters away, even when eating.
The athletes’ village in Tokyo opened ten days before the start of the Olympic Games. However, this time without a solemn greeting, music or public flag-raising. This appointment was also overshadowed by the concern of many Japanese about the spread of the corona virus through the mass spectacle; The fourth state of emergency has now come into force in Tokyo and is expected to last until after the Olympics. Around 18,000 athletes and officials will live in the athletes’ village, which consists of 21 houses. Several delegations have already arrived in Japan, and by the end of this week there will be more than 2,200 people. Two positive corona tests have already been reported among members of the team from Uganda plus one Serbian and one Israeli case – this also increases skepticism in the host country.
