Twenty-eight of the new cases were people who tested positive after arriving at the airport, including eight athletes or team officials due to take part in the Feb 4 to 21 Games, organisers said yesterday in a notice on the Games’ website.

The loop allows participants to move freely between their accommodation and Olympic venues on official transport, but they are not allowed to move freely in public.
