TOKYO -- A growing number of athletes have voiced opposition to organizers determined to host the Tokyo Olympics as scheduled, citing health risks associated with holding the event during a global pandemic.
"The IOC wants us to keep risking our health, our family’s health and public health to train every day? You are putting us in danger right now, today, not in 4 months," Katerina Stefanidi, the current pole vault champion from Greece, posted on Twitter Tuesday.
