Japanese government officials are set to declare a state of emergency in Tokyo because of an ongoing Covid-19 surge, which will begin next Monday and last through the Olympics to August 22.

The Olympics are set to begin on July 23 and close on August 8. The Games already will take place without foreign spectators, and the planned state of emergency likely means local fans won’t be allowed either.
