This might be paternalistic, but the Japanese public is pretty much against holding the Olympic Games this year. I felt that pretty well from anecdotal evidence, but public opinion polls seem to back this trend. Taking this poll[1] for instance, 39.7% were in favor of calling off the games and 25.7% were in favor of postponing them to 2022 or later. Only 28.9% were in favor of hosting the games as planned in 2021.
