A number of sportspeople eligible for the 2020 Summer Paralympics in Tokyo stated that they would not attend because of the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan .
Four Pacific nations were unable to attend the games due to COVID-19 related travel restrictions in Australia, which would have required the athletes to quarantine there at their own cost, which the National Paralympic Committees were unable to afford.[1] [2]
