Business Weekly: How Tokyo is attempting to make the Olympics safe

BBC World Service - Business Weekly, How Tokyo is attempting to make the Olympics safeSearch BBC

No singing, no cheering, no alcohol. But will the spectacle of the Games be lost?

On this edition of Business Weekly, we talk Tokyo 2020 and hear how the organisers of the Olympic Games are trying to get spectators into venues whilst trying to minimise the risk from coronavirus. We also take a look at legal challenges brought against employers who are insisting their workers have a Covid vaccination before they re-enter the office, hearing from a lawyer representing a group of hospital workers in Texas who want to take their case all the way to the Supreme Court. Plus we hear how getting the nuance wrong in corporate communications can be costly. Business Weekly is presented by Sasha Twining and produced by Matthew Davies.
