Recently, I delay to go office for control COVID-19 infection.

I noticed that the number of passenger in a train come to incree day by day.

"Staggered office hours" and "working at home" might be fixed, though soem administrations of citiy has been struggling in vain.

I am overcome by deep emotion that people cannot say "annoying" or "status quo" in the situation of saving their life.

By the way, I also noticed afresh

"Olympic / Paralympics is one of the world festival"

I thought in a mood of optimism that Tokyo 2020 Olympic / Paralympics gets under the wire if Japan can constrain COVID-19 infection spread.

But I remember that the participants are coming from all of the world.

Not only this country but also Europe grows serious.

Can this country prohibit refusing specific participants entry into the country? I am afraid that it is very difficult.

Moreover, some countries will abandon to send players to this country.

Olympic athletes may have a lower risk of seriousness (apart from infection).

However, some Paralympic athletes may not be able to ignore the risk of escalation, depending on the event they participate in.

"Health is very important"

This may be the first time I have realized this at the global level, not at the individual level.

The Tokyo Olympics had been canceled once before the 1964 (1940).

At that time, it was because of a "war" (but decided to return two years ago (1938)).

This global outbreak of COVID-19 may look like war.

Assuming that World War III is defined as an "all nuclear war", this pandemic is "WW 2.5"-

Well, not too exaggerated,

I wonder if it will be positioned as about "World War 2.2".
