i was in singapore, which was the meeting where the bid cities came together and had to lobby the ioc, tony blair, people queuing down the stairs wanting to meet him, because he was the big rock star of international politics at the time, and arguably his lobbying helped tip the balance in london's favour. that is what people who were there of all political persuasions and none subsequently told me, but even for london in 2012, it was a big price, there were lots of fears about security, the cost going out of control, about whether things would work and happen on time. in the end, they did. there is big risk, even if it goes ahead forjapan, because now, on top of it, doing it with empty stadia, with all this restrictions on people, it is not going to be the fun event that perhaps many would have hoped it could be. listen, shaun, i've been talking to olympic organisers. - i know we're being very down, . but i will tell you what they have told me, and i think there is an elementj of truth to this. for the global spectators watching at home, it might not look that i different, actually.

the messaging from an ioc perspective seems to be that cancelling is off the table.s the big question. covid cases are still on the rise. the vaccine strategy is way behind where it should be. it's the lowest country of the g8 for vaccination. it's around 5%. the truth is, people in japan, they don't want the games to go ahead. according to polls, around 80% of people are opposed to it. this major newspaper, also an official sponsor of the olympics, is calling for the games to be canceled is significant because of what's at stake. >> those two numbers say it all. 5% vaccinated, 80% opposed to the games. what would that look like? if there is, for example, the japanese government, tokyo government says we are not comfortable with this, even though the ioc says, we want to move forward, how does that get resolved? how would that work? >> reporter: most of japan is against having the games, because they don't want it to be the world's biggest superspreader event. they are fearful of the covid variants, and for good reason. they will have thousands of officials, athletes
