Tokyo venues for the pandemic-delayed Tokyo 2020 Olympics will not have spectators due to the city's coronavirus state of emergency through the Games, according to the Japanese Olympic Committee.

据日本奥委会介绍，奥运会期间东京因新冠疫情进入紧急状态，推迟举办的2020东京奥运会东京场馆将不会有现场观众。

 

 

Japanese Olympic Committee Seiko Hashimoto said due to the pandemic, organizers have "no choice but to hold the Games in a limited way."

日本奥委会的桥本圣子称，由于新冠疫情，主办方“别无选择，只能以有限的方式举办奥运会”。

According to an IOC spokesman, it's unprecedented for a host city's venues not to have spectators.

国际奥委会发言人称，奥运会主办城市的场馆没有观众，这是史无前例的。

There are total 42 venues listed on the Tokyo 2020 website. Twenty-five are in Tokyo and the rest are in seven other prefectures.

东京2020网站上总共列出了42个场馆。25个场馆在东京，其余场馆在其他7个县。

However, three prefectures near Tokyo -- Chiba, Kanagawa and Saitama -- will not have spectators at Olympic competition venues, according to Hashimoto.

不过，桥本称，东京附近的千叶、神奈川和埼玉三个县的奥运赛事场馆也不会有现场观众。

Miyagi, Fukushima, and Shizuoka prefectures have decided that venues can be filled to 50% of capacity with a maximum of 10,000 spectators, added Hashimoto.

桥本还表示，宫城县、福岛县和静冈县已决定当地奥运场馆可接待观众为场馆容量的50%，最多1万名观众。

Earlier on Thursday, Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga had confirmed the Games would be held under a state of emergency.

7月8日，日本首相菅义伟确认东京奥运会将在紧急状态下举行。

The new state of emergency for the capital will run from July 12 to August 22 -- covering the 16 days of the embattled Games in its entirety.

东京新一轮紧急状态将从7月12日持续到8月22日，持续16天的奥运会将在此期间举办。

The spectator decision comes as Tokyo reported 920 new infections for Wednesday -- the highest daily caseload since the middle of May.

在决定禁止东京场馆现场观众之际，东京7月7日报告了920例新增感染病例，创下自5月中旬以来每日新增病例数的最高纪录。

The ban on spectators is likely to be a big disappointment for some athletes.

一些运动员可能对禁止现场观众感到失望。

Sport climber Akiyo Noguchi said she derives tremendous power from performing in front of a big crowd, and creating that motivation and energy will be harder without cheers from the bleachers.

攀岩运动员野口启代说，在人群前比赛让她获得了巨大的力量，如果没有看台上的欢呼声将难以获得这种动力和能量。

"I feel very sad. I wanted to be in the Olympics because I wanted to show my best performance in front of my family and supporters, but this will not be in the form that I've been imagining," she told CNN previously.

她此前对美国有线电视新闻网表示：“我觉得很难过。我想参加奥运会是因为我想在我的家人和支持者面前展现最佳风采，但现在和我想象的不一样。”
