As Japan battles a fourth wave of COVID-19, a national consensus has emerged: cancel or postpone the Tokyo Olympics.

According to a recent poll, only 14% of the Japanese public support holding the Games as scheduled. They’re set to begin in 10 weeks after being postponed from last summer.

COVID-19 cases spiked over 25% in Japan last week and weekly cases reached an all-time high. Only about 1% of the population is vaccinated. Regardless, the AP reports, “The IOC vice president in charge of the postponed Tokyo Olympics said Friday the games would open in just over two months even if the city and other parts of Japan were under a state of emergency because of rising COVID-19 cases.”

Hiroshi Mikitani, the CEO of Rakuten, Japan’s most successful e-commerce company, called the Games a “suicide mission.” A recent petition requesting their cancellation garnered 350,000 signatures. And the Tokyo Medical Practitioners Association, comprised of 6,000 doctors, posted an open letter to Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga earlier this week saying that it would “strongly request” a cancellation of the Games.

But International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach pushed back on criticism on Wednesday morning. From CNN:

The IOC President saying his organization has offered to provide additional medical personnel to help pull off strict anti-Covid measures alongside the Tokyo government.

He added that 75% of people who plan on being in the Olympic Village have already been vaccinated, while organizers hope the final number will be more than 80%.

Bach said the existing plans have been tested with foreign athletes in several test events — none of which turned into super spreader events.

Last week, Olympic organizers said precautions will include the prohibition of celebratory hugs between athletes and coaches.

Spectators from abroad are not allowed to attend the Games. A decision on limiting the number of Japanese fans is forthcoming.
