Sports ruling agencies expressed their disappointment at the decision of the Olympic organizers to ban the audience from July 23-August.
8 Tokyo matches but understand the needs of Japan to take drastic action to curb the spread of Covid-19.
The Olympics will take place without spectators in the host of Tokyo City, said the organizer on Thursday, as Coronavirus rose again forcing Japan to declare an emergency in the capital that would run throughout the match.
Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga said it was very important to prevent Tokyo, where the Delta variant was very contagious from the Covid-19 variant spread, began to become a new infection point.
People will also be asked not to collect events on public roads, such as Triathlon, although officials say several places outside the larger Metropolitan Tokyo area will allow a small number of spectators.
World athletics, sports management agencies, said athletes were used to competing in stadiums that were not packaged but they would love to see “noisy fans” in Tokyo.
“This is disappointing for everyone,” Athletics World said in a statement.
“For Tokyo and Japanese people, the opportunity to see the best athletes in the world that compete in meat is an opportunity that does not occur often.” We, of course, need to listen, and obey, that decision.
Individual countries make because this virus affects the country and region differently and they have access to all information and science.
“What we are all in sports must focus is to make a tough brave decision.” The International Hockey Federation (FIH) said that expecting a capacity of 5,000 spectators and 2,500 spectators each on two tones.
“While we certainly regret that the current sanitation situation prevents the hosting game with the audience, we fully understand and support the decisions taken by the Japanese authorities and organizers and IOC,” said Fih.
Great competition, Al-Musallam, the newly elected president of the swimming world that governs the Fina body, said his organization hopes to see the arena filled with a capacity of no less than 50%.
“But this decision is of course for Tokyo 2020 and Japanese authorities,” Al-Musallam told Reuters via email.
“At the same time, Fina hopes to see the audience attending the match and Fina hopes this can happen on July 23.” Athletes will still have interesting ways to interact with their home countries and fans, and Fina believes that Aquatics athletes will still provide great competition for the world to watch from their own homes.
“Moving to the audience bar marked the sharp turnaround from recently like last week, when officials still insisted they could arrange the game safely with fans present.
Foreign audiences have been excluded from the game, which is postponed by one year.
The German athlete association The athletes of the Deutschland athlete said the organizers’ decision was “both of them made sense and appropriate” in the view of the pandemic.
“The Olympics should not accelerate the level of infection nationally, also does not have to be a global SuperSpreader event,” he said.
” In general, the committee may not spend the cost and effort as part of their duty treatment to reduce the risk of infection for those involved by all means and steps.
This also applies to the rules of hygiene and safety.
“Japan has not suffered a Covid-19 explosion outbreak that is seen in many other countries but has more than 810,000 cases and 14,900 deaths.
The launch of a slow vaccine intended is only a quarter of the population having at least one shot.” Emergency in Japan is very different from the steps.
In a province like Ontario, which still prohibits a room in a room in the restaurant, “said the Canadian Olympic Committee told Reuters in email.” In Japan, people can still go to the cinema, eat in restaurants, take public transportation, and work in the office.
There is no question that the absence of spectators in the game will produce different experiences for everyone in Tokyo.
