Japan has declared a state of emergency in Tokyo after a spike in coronavirus cases. This news comes as the Olympics are scheduled to begin there in two weeks.

The lack of in-person fans may well mean fewer viewers for the TV broadcast of the games, a big problem for NBC and its streaming service Peacock.
