@klutz
She won't do that. You have to remember that all her sponsors support BLM, and do not support the cancellation. Her speaking out about a cancellation would be a suicide mission. She can only speak on revalant topics, of which the Olympics is not.

Posted in: Japan administers 1st Moderna vaccine shots to SDF members See in context
3 available vaccines!! Wow! Now the gov't can give some more lame excuses as to why they can't distribute them. What is next because they already used logistics, computers crashing, not enough doctors with 6 degrees to give a shot, no country would sell the vaccines, people don't want the vaccines. Running out of excuses. Time to get creative!

After someone serves time in Japan, they have no future. Society will NOT allow it. This is not like in America where you can become a wealthy lawyer after serving 20 years for murder.

John Coates needs to be replaced ASAP. First though, he needs to make a public statement himself cancelling the Olympics.

The J-gov't is busy! They can do anything because they are preparing for the next Pandemic! They have to consult the panel of experts to ask the panels panel before they can do anything.

Posted in: Most Japanese medical workers still not fully vaccinated See in context
So far, just 3.7% of Japan's population of 126 million have gotten at least one COVID-19 vaccine shot, the lowest rate among wealthy countries.
Tired of seeing JT tout over and over how Japan is a "wealthy" country. Japan is NOT wealthy, advanced, or anything of that sort.

Posted in: Most Japanese medical workers still not fully vaccinated See in context
Much of the supply of vaccine was concentrated in large hospitals, and there had been problems in the reservation systems for medical staff, the newspaper said.
How hard is it to have each nurse get their Vaccine during their shift? Dedicate each day to a dept. Monday- ICU , Tuesday-ER, Wednesday-Radiology, Thursday-Rehabilitation., etc...This is NOT rocket science. No one is trying to go to Mars. It is a simple jab in the arm.

You know as well as all of us here that the numbers will soon go down...less tests, manipulate numbers makes everything appear to be ok. Hold the Olympics, and then enact the SOE again...
