Failure to hold onto uncompromising reality or optimism Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Saturday declared that the Tokyo Olympic Games scheduled for this summer will take place despite the spread of the deadly corona virus. "We will overcome the spread of infections and the Corona virus and host the Olympics without a problem, just as planned," he said in a special press conference.

Given the situation around the world, especially in the East, the prospect that the Tokyo Olympics that are scheduled to start on July 24 and end on August 9 seems unlikely to really start on time. In Japan, 1,400 patients have been infected so far and 28 people have died, so the words of the local prime minister now seem like a fantasy that would be difficult to establish.
