While the Olympic games were cancelled due to the pandemic last year, Japan and host city Tokyo ironically are experiencing higher COVID-19 case numbers than last summer, with a 7-day average of about 5,000 cases.

MedPage Today has spoken with three team doctors since the games officially began last Friday, who note that organizers have taken many other additional precautions.
The three physicians are Naresh Rao, DO, the men s water polo team doctor; Alex Myers, DO, the rugby team doctor; and James Lally, DO, an American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians fellow who is working his 7th summer games for USA Shooting.

Rainbow Blades, the first official LGBT+ fans group of Sheffield United, is almost 12 months old and during the COVID-19 pandemic it has played an important role in helping fans to feel connected.
With supporters unable to meet up in person before matches, Rainbow Blades has held online pre-match socials to unite them virtually. The socials remain a real highlight for Rainbow Blades and one of our big success stories from our first year, says the group s founder James Laley. They have gone from strength to strength. We welcome returning members week in, week out. They find our safe, inclusive space a great place to chat with other like-minded fans, have a laugh and fill that void that the pandemic has left in football.
