Tokyo 2020: they do not rule out canceling the 3:25 games

(CNN Spanish) -

The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games finally arrive after an entire odyssey.

Or at least that's what is expected.

• Tokyo Olympics: when are they, where to see them and everything you need to know

Less than a day before the opening ceremony begins, there is still controversy and concern over the holding of the Games, which were canceled last year due to the covid-19 pandemic.

Tokyo 2020 Olympics director Toshiro Muto did not rule out a last-minute cancellation of the Olympics amid a surge in COVID-19 cases.

"We cannot predict what the epidemic will be like in the future. So as to what to do in case there is an increase in positive cases, we will discuss it accordingly if that happens," Muto said during a press conference in Tokyo on Tuesday.

Despite this adverse situation, in which cases continue to increase, the athletes have been preparing for the sporting event.

And in the face of the increasingly constant use of social networks such as Instagram and new ones such as TikTok, athletes share their Olympic-pandemic journey through these media.

From putting Tokyo's 'anti-sex' beds to the test to sharing part of their training sessions, social networks bring the experience of the Olympic Games closer than ever, something that takes on more importance considering that it will be a competition without an audience.
