        Japanese gov't must cancel #Tokyo2020 and focus on saving lives. They are even attempting to reduce hospital beds for money in the middle of this pandemic. How can we enjoy the Games, knowing that people are dying at home? #CancelTheOlympics

        Unfortunately no mention of the lack of testing, only that Japan has "handled it well". Perhaps should be "hidden it well". Article depicts the current problems but not a main neglected action. By avoiding mass testing and limiting access Japan has only masked the problem.
