'I was sitting in the ambulance. It was 3 a.m. I was crying like crazy because I didn't know what was going on. I did not feel safe at all,' said Natalia Maliszewska
It was meant to be all about the athletes, but competitors caught up in China’s strict zero-COVID policy say they are enduring an Olympics from hell.
“I was sitting in the ambulance. It was 3 a.m. I was crying like crazy because I didn’t know what was going on. I did not feel safe at all,” Natalia Maliszewska said. “I cry until I have no more tears.” Also in tears was the Belgian Kim Meylemans, who tested positive on her arrival in Beijing but assumed she would be allowed to join her teammates in the Olympic village after a series of negative test results three days later.
