Sir Keith Mills, the CEO of the 2012 Olympics in London, told BBC s Radio 5 on Tuesday that he believed Tokyo organizers should be making cancellation plans. Personally, sitting here looking at the pandemic around the world, it looks unlikely I have to say, Mills said. He noted that organizers had about a month left before needing to make a definite call.
