This fan is happy the Olympic games are being pushed back for a year. The coronavirus pandemic continues across the world and the top priority is health. One the pandemic is over, the athletes can focus on the Olympics.

If the Olympic Games were going to be held this year, this is what the logo would look like. Social distancing is being practiced all over the world to try to slow down the spread of the disease. Other practices include handwashing for 20 seconds and staying at home.

This fan from Canada appreciates the IOC for making the decision. Even if the Olympics were able to go on this year, several countries would not be in attendance in order to protect the health of the athletes.

How can you still call it Tokyo 2020 when it’s gonna be held in 2021 🙄🤦♂️ that’s like saying your 28 but your really 29

This fan is wondering why the Olympics will still be called Tokyo 2020 when it will now be held in 2021? Odds are the name could change, but the important thing right now is ending the pandemic because it numbers of coronavirus cases continue to increase in several countries.

Here’s my question, will the 2022,2024 and so on olympic games be moved?

With the Olympics pushed back one year, this fan wants to know of the Winter Olympics in 2002 and the Summer Games in 2024 will also be changed. Odds are they won't be because the IOC likely wants to get back on schedule. But that decision will be made when it becomes a priority.

Heartbreaking, but it's the only right move. Humanity will be stronger after coronavirus, and I believe that in 2021, the Olympic Flame will shine even brighter giving us all even more joy and inspiration! Thank you Shinzo Abe, Japan, @iocmedia! Stay strong an see you in 2021! 💛

This fan didn't want the Olympics to be moved, but it's the right call and the world will be stronger after the pandemic passes. It's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but this fan knows it's there.

And speaking of 2021, this Twitter user is ready for a big year in sports. Along with the Olympics, the men's and women's Euro Championships will take place next year and it determines the best soccer teams in Europe. And the Euro Championships will likely take place right before the Olympics.
