Olympic Games: AP Journo Steve Wade on how the IOC have coped with COVID-19

Steve Wade also explained what president Thomas Bach is expecting to put in place for the Games after his visit to Tokyo in November. After President Bach's visit to Tokyo in November, he revealed that the IOC are confident a vaccine will be available for the Games. "The vaccine will make things much simpler, the vaccine and rapid testing but it's not a silver bullet," said Wade, but he added, "The vaccine will not cure all the problems." Bach is also confident fans will be allowed to watch the Tokyo Olympics inside venues, should the vaccine and rapid testing be available. The IOC and Organisers will be hoping a vaccine is available as they begin their seven-month countdown to the Games.
