  China News Service Client Beijing, May 24. According to Kyodo News Agency of Japan, the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games Organizing Committee is coordinating with relevant groups on reducing the rescue system of the competition venues.

According to the plan, medical personnel such as doctors and nurses in the ambulance station facing the audience will be reduced, due to the fact that the number of spectators is reduced and the arrangement of medical personnel is difficult under the epidemic.

  According to reports, the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee plans to set up ambulance stations for athletes and spectators in various competition venues to prepare for injuries, sudden illnesses, heatstroke and other physical discomforts.

The ambulance station for players will have highly professional medical staff on standby.

  Prior to this, the Japanese government and the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee had decided to abandon the acceptance of overseas audiences.

The upper limit of the number of spectators for the event was originally planned to be decided in April, but the decision was postponed to June due to the expansion of the epidemic.

  And if "no spectators" are held in empty venues, medical care must be provided to the relevant persons of the International Olympic Committee. Therefore, the ambulance station must be set up.

  According to reports, on the two-month countdown to the opening of the Tokyo Olympics, Japan’s domestic concerns about arranging medical staff to serve the Olympics and Paralympics will affect medical care in areas that are already in short supply, and opposition is rising.

  The chairman of the Olympic Organizing Committee Seiko Hashimoto emphasized at a press conference on the evening of the 21st local time: “The medical system (the Olympic and Paralympic medical system) must be constructed in a form that will not hinder direct involvement in the new crown response.” Regarding medical staff, she Said that "about 80% of the whole has been eyebrows."
