Omicron: Luge athlete Hackl considers games ‘not possible’

Olympic gold medalist Georg Hackl sees the Olympic Games in Beijing endangered by the Omicron wave. In an interview with the German Sunday newspaper, Die Welt am Sonntag, the 55-year-old doubted the Games could be held if parts of different teams had to be continuously isolated. He outlined the scenario of a positive test in the team immediately after arrival in Beijing. That would exclude entire teams from participating.
