By Syndicated Content May 10, 2021 | 4:21 AM TOKYO (Reuters) – A tweet by a top Japanese government advisor downplaying the pandemic and laughing off calls for the Olympics to be cancelled is drawing public ire a few days after Japan extended a state of emergency in Tokyo and three other areas until the end of May. Kaetsu University Professor Yoichi Takahashi likened the number of coronavirus cases in Japan to “a ripple,” adding “so you’re telling me people want to cancel the Olympics for this? lol lol.” The tweet has garnered over 13,000 retweets since he posted it on Sunday. “I can’t believe that a special government advisor is a person who would belittle the deaths of people just to justify hosting the Olympic Games,” said one Twitter user.
