Athletes planning to compete in the Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo will be required to sign a waiver assuming all COVID-19 risks prior to participating.
Henry Bushnell of Yahoo Sports obtained a waiver copy and relayed an excerpt from Section 4:
"I agree that I participate in the Games at my own risk and own responsibility, including any impact on my participation to and/or performance in the Games, serious bodily injury or even death raised by the potential exposure to health hazards such the transmission of COVID-19 and other infectious disease or extreme heat conditions while attending the Games.
