On Wednesday, the 23rd, the Japanese government and others will send about 10,000 athletes from overseas on condition that they will submit a negative certificate of COVID-19 and an action plan in Japan for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics. It was revealed that it was considering accepting it.
According to the draft, overseas athletes will be tested within 72 hours before leaving Japan and will come to Japan with a negative proof. Immediately after entering Japan, after re-examination at the airport, have them act according to the action plan submitted in advance.
The Olympic Organizing Committee will prepare a dedicated car for moving to the Olympic Village after entering Japan and for round trips between the Olympic Village and the competition / practice venue. When going through a host town, each local government will prepare a car and ask them to refrain from using public transportation in principle. In addition, ask the local governments of the host town and pre-camping sites to prepare an acceptance manual based on infection prevention measures.
The policy is to request the submission of a “pledge” that promises activities in line with the action plan, but we will also discuss whether to impose penalties for violations.
