Two staff workers at the Athletes' Village of the Tokyo Olympic Games have tested positive for COVID-19, just 16 days before the opening ceremony of the mega event on July 23, a media report said.

"The pair tested positive last week and further investigations revealed they had been eating in a group with two other village workers - in violation of the organising committee's own COVID-19 countermeasures," ABC news reported.
