Among all of the health problems it's caused and events it's postponed are the 2020 Summer Olympics and Paralympics. The Summer Games were supposed to kick off in Tokyo, Japan, on July 24th.
Leaders from the International Olympic Committee, Japanese Olympic organizers and the Japanese government held a phone call on Monday and decided the events would start almost exactly a year later, on July 23rd, 2021.

IOC president Thomas Bach said humankind currently finds itself in a dark tunnel and that these Olympic Games can be a light at the end of it. But for the country of Japan, the buildings that's constructed for the events and for the athletes themselves, this presents a number of new challenges, how can they be overcome.
