LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND  (January 23, 2021) It is being reported by various media outlets, including Reuters, that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is planning to vaccinate all athletes in order to avoid another postponement, or a possible cancelation of the Tokyo Games due to COVID-19.

Sources have stated that the IOC will work with the World Health Organization (WHO) to fast-tract the vaccine to athletes whose countries are experiencing difficulties in administering vaccinations.

The rescheduled Games of the XXXII Olympiad will occur from July 23 to August 8, 2021.
