        They should be cancelled or postponed indefinitely

        I am not sure what is worse: IOC, FIFA or FIA.

        All olympics should be canceled because nobody cares especially during a pandemic. There is so much waste w any/all olympics so why bother?

        The IOC should not penalize Japan for this situation. It just needs to postpone another year. They are just games

        I think the IOC needs a reality check. Do they think that the world gives a toss about the Olympics during a pandemic, when millions of people around the world are dying? Or is it just the money they care about?

        Oh. Ok. No vaccinations in Japan until end of February at the earliest and they think they’re going to be ready for Athletes to arrive months ahead of August games to prepare? I can’t roll my eyes any further.

        Canceling the games is the responsible thing to do. #Japan @iocmedia #TokyoOlympics

        100% should be cancelled. Vaccines are still not going to be even remotely done by then here. They're only barely going to start in small numbers at the end of February.
