Olympic Teams Raise Concerns Over Quarantine Hotels

The quarantine hotels are increasingly the target of criticism from athletes and their teams, who are lobbying organizers for improvements.

Not enough food. Inedible meals. No training equipment. Some Olympic athletes unlucky enough to test positive for the coronavirus at the Beijing Olympics feel their quarantine conditions are making a bad situation much worse.

"My stomach hurts, I'm very pale and I have huge black circles around my eyes. I want all this to end. I cry every day. I'm very tired," Russian biathlon competitor Valeria Vasnetsova posted on Instagram from one of Beijing's so-called quarantine hotels.

Her problem wasn't with any symptoms of the virus. It was the food.
