This news comes after SHO, YOH, Kazuchika Okada, Minoru Suzuki, El Desperado, and Yoshinobu Kanemaru were all pulled of night one of Wrestling Dontaku due to COVID protocols.

Honestly the situation in Japan is probably going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Last I heard virtually nobody's had the chance to get vaccinated and they're still committed to the Olympics despite that for some stupid reason.

You probably won't know unless the patients mention it themselves due to Japanese privacy laws. |

New Japan social media says it is Okada and YOH who tested positive.

It helps your curiosity, but there's basically no chance to keep most things secret over here. Brodie's situation was only secret for a few months, Nigel's got out, etc. We don't deserve to know any of that. |

I have a friend that married a Japanese guy and lives in Tokyo. She said the vaccination situation there is terrible. I'm really surprised how poor the situation is over there. |

I saw an account on Twitter saying that it isn't even being treated like a priority to vaccinate those performing the vaccinations, that only about 20 percent of them had been vaccinated so far. That's pathetic.

So, that two number just jumped to 9 according to NJPW's official website.

Japan is usually way ahead of the curve on things I’m surprised that ithe vaccinations are so poor over there.
I see no way that the Olympics happen, spectators banned or not. Countries that send people over there unvaccinated are just asking for another outbreak.

Yeah when I heard how bad things were getting in Japan I was genuinely shocked because they're usually ones to take things seriously. Sounds like preppy for the Olympics has taken sole priority over everything |

Tommy Dreamer got it pretty bad too at an indy in Alaska. I forgot what he said about if more than just the wrestler he got it from were affected.

I don't see this as an NJPW problem, I see this as a Japanese problem.
And it's actually pretty shocking. As others have said Japan is usually on top of shit like this.

As others have said, the Olympics have taken priority over vaccinations right now. Which is bad for two reasons: 1. Vaccinations are the finish line to this thing. 2. Japan is already a very vaccination-skeptical country. They usually have the lowest flu vaccination rates of any of the major economies. |

Man, Covid went after Minoru Suzuki. That's pretty ballsy.
Seriously, hopefully they all recover fairly quickly.
