Athletes need to be focused on for the unique coronavirus injection so the beleaguered Tokyo Olympic Games can go on later on this year, according to elderly Olympics authoritiesDick Pound
Canadian Pound, the longest-serving participant of the International Olympics Committee (IOC), informed Sky News in the UK that the Games might still go on with mass professional athlete involvement, yet just if they were immunized.
“In Canada where we might have 300 or 400 athletes – to take 300 or 400 vaccines out of several million in order to have Canada represented at an international event of this stature, character and level – I don’t think there would be any kind of a public outcry about that,” Pound informedSky News “It’s a decision for each country to make and there will be people saying they are jumping the queue but I think that is the most realistic way of it going ahead.”
During his browse through to Tokyo in November, IOC President Thomas Bach claimed professional athletes would certainly be urged to obtain the injection yet it would certainly not be necessary for their involvement in the Games.
Separately, Pound informed the BBC the ever-changing nature of the coronavirus pandemic suggested no one might be certain whether the Games would certainly go on in much less than 200 days.
