TOKYO — The Latest on the Tokyo Olympics, which are taking place under heavy restrictions after a year’s delay because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The very first match of the Olympic beach volleyball tournament has been canceled because a Czech player tested positive for COVID-19.

Markéta Sluková tested positive earlier this week, knocking her and partner Barbora Hermannova out of the Tokyo Games.

The Czechs were supposed to be playing a team from the host country that would have been making its Olympic debut. Instead, the Japanese pair of Megumi Murakami and Miki Ishii earned the victory by default.

Sluková is one of at least three members of the Czech team who have tested positive since their arrival in Japan, including men’s beach volleyball player Ondřej Perušič.

The team has said it’s investigating if the outbreak of COVID-19 is linked to its charter flight to Tokyo.

Yeah, we can totally control this “virus”. We just need another year or two of facemasks and lockdowns, and maybe a few more “vaccines”. Yeah, that’s the ticket.

I dated a pro beach volleyball player.

I flew hang gliders in socal but her shoulders were way more massive.

Weird dating someone that can kick your ass if they had too.

Miss her. We had great fun.

I still don’t think the Games will make it all the way through.

If you were to ask the Japanese, they wouldn’t be said at all.

Yeah, back in the day, I dated a Danish nanny over here on a visa who ran ten miles every morning without fail. And yes, she was a pretty 6’ blonde with the build, strength and endurance of a triathalon competitor. I miss her, too, but she wore me down to a nubbin that summer.

So the CCP cooties can attach themselves to a volleyball?

IIRC just about every city that’s hosted the Olympics in recent years has come to regret it. And for 2020 we can add the Wuhan Flu to all the other problems that Tokyo will be experiencing.

I just got done watching the opening ceremony. All of these athletes worked their buttons off to be there. What a kick in the teeth to get sick at all let alone Covid. Just sad.

Especially since they had that gaijin lit the Flame, they are pissed about that, since she hadn’t even lived in Japan since she was 3.

Really sick or just a ramped up PCR “test”?

And she and any athletes she’s been in contact with will be just fine.

It might have a 99.97% SURVIVAL RATE instead of 99.98%. Yet there’s not a damn peep about Ebola and its 50% to 90% MORTALITY RATE.

Control. Compliance. Obedience. Herd mentality. Hive mind. That’s the name of the game. Always has been. Always will be.

Exactly. People are wishing her a fast and full recovery. But who’s to say there is anything to recover from?

The petition to stop the game was initialized by blue-hairs who don’t look good in bikinis.

TBH, & IMHO, the girls beach volleyball and beach handball are the only things worth watching.;^)
