Japanese Prime Minister Says 2020 Olympics Could Be Delayed Due to Coronavirus
Unless things drastically improve in the short term I don’t see how the Olympics can be held when many athletes are likely having a hard time even training for them right now:
Postponing the 2020 Olympics “may become inevitable” if the new coronavirus outbreak makes it impossible to hold the Games safely, Japan’s prime minister said Monday.
Shinzo Abe told parliament that Japan was still committed to a “complete” Games, but added: “if that becomes difficult, in light of considering athletes first, it may become inevitable that we make a decision to postpone.”
The comments were his first acknowledging the possibility that the Games may not open as scheduled on July 24 as the coronavirus continues to spread across the world.

Yeah, no country can have their qualifying games so olympics are done for this year.
Thanks to the Coronavirus that the US tried to kill China with.
Fing China Bot. Chinese communist party needs to be eliminated. Everyone but CCP bots know that CCP started this and F’d the entire world; as communist always do.
Ha!
America is going to kill China.
The economy is being crashed to ween the public of of cheap noisy-flashy Chinese crap.
With no market, China dies. Then the unrest begins.
Meanwhile, America pumps money into rebuilding industry… a decade of great jobs restarting American industrial dominance… the Roaring 20s all over!
…until the robots are plugged in.
But that is a different story.
I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords.
