WASHINGTON, March 20, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – International Olympic Committee
president Thomas Bach said the organisation was “considering different
scenarios” for the Tokyo Games on Friday, but was optimistic about holding
the event as scheduled despite the coronavirus pandemic.
“Of course we are considering different scenarios, but we are contrary to
many other sports organisations or professional leagues in that we are four-
and-a-half months away from the Games,” Bach told the New York Times.
