The unnamed athlete from the Australian Water Polo team tested positive for COVID-19. The pandemic situation affected the 2020 Tokyo Olympics dearly forcing it to be shifted to 2021. Team executive Anna Meares said: "This is a high-performance environment, so we are being diligent, but I need to emphasize we are treating Covid no different to other bugs like the flu - this is not Tokyo. The athlete is not particularly unwell and they are still training, but sleeping in a single room - the whole team will train today as planned. We've been able to get a really good handle on what might be going about. What was very positive about this situation and this athlete was that they followed the protocols and at the first sign of symptoms they acted responsibly and presented themselves to the medical team to be tested."
