Are the Olympic Covid rules tough? Ask the horses about their restrictions

If you thought the Covid-19 travel restrictions and rules for the Olympians in Tokyo are tough then spare a thought for the horses who will be part of the competition in Equestrian sports. A total of 325 horses will be participating with their human companions at the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic competitions. Before their arrival in Japan, the four-legged Olympians were kept in a special horse hostel in Belgium for 2 months. The special 60-day health surveillance period was followed by a seven-day pre-export quarantine. After their arrival in Tokyo, the organising committee arranged for special air-conditioned trucks to transport the horses to the Olympic stables at Baji Koen.
