Jun Azumi says the government’s priority should be to speed up its vaccine drive

Tokyo — Japan needs to consider scrapping the Tokyo Olympics and speeding up its vaccine rollout amid growing virus infections, says former finance minister Jun Azumi.

“We need a massive number of people who can actually administer doses,” said Azumi, acknowledging that difficulties securing the vaccines from abroad had also delayed inoculation efforts. “The regulations haven’t been eased and only a limited number of medical professionals have been given permission to administer the shots.”

While Japan has fared better than other Group of Seven countries in limiting infections and deaths, its national tally of new cases is now trending above 4,000 a day, above the daily count in the UK, which started its vaccination programme months earlier. The organisers of the Games in Tokyo are scheduled to give an update on preparations to the International Olympic Committee on Wednesday.
