Athletes participating in the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics will be released with an updated version of a guide called "Playbook" that summarizes the rules necessary to prevent infection of the new corona, and athletes and coaches will be inspected daily after entering Japan. It was clarified that it should be done.

The "Playbook" was created by the IOC = International Olympic Committee and the Games Organizing Committee for athletes, international sports organizations, and the media as a countermeasure against the new corona, and has basic infection control and rules. It is summarized.



On the 28th, an updated version of the "Playbook" for athletes was announced, which was announced in February this year.

The updated version has a stronger inspection system than the one in February, and it is related to conducting two inspections within 96 hours before leaving Japan and acting with athletes such as coaches after entering Japan. As a general rule, it is clearly stated that a person should undergo an inspection conducted in a dedicated area such as the Olympic Village every day.



In addition, by limiting the range of activities to accommodations and practice venues, athletes were allowed to practice from the first day of entry.



In addition, as for transportation, the use of public transportation is not permitted in principle, and during that time, it is required to use buses and chartered taxis exclusively for those involved.



And if there is a serious violation, we will take measures to cancel the ID card called "accreditation card".



Regarding this "Playbook", the Games Organizing Committee and others will update it further in June and announce it as the final version, taking into account measures such as corona measures according to the future infection situation.
