Organizers for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics announced they will allow some local spectators into each venue, as long as no state of emergency is in effect. Up to 10,000 domestic fans will be allowed at events, or 50% of the venue’s capacity, whichever is less, organizers said Monday. The coronavirus situation in Japan has improved in recent weeks with increased vaccinations, though critics still believe it would be safer to close the games to all spectators.
