the digest editorial department 2024.08.05 Amid concerns over water pollution in the Seine, a triathlon was held on July 31st, but it was later revealed that one of the participants had been hospitalized after the race. The person hospitalized was Belgian athlete Claire Michel, who reportedly felt unwell after the race in which she finished 38th. On August 4th local time, the Belgian Olympic Committee announced that “the athlete who complained of feeling unwell was taken to the General Medical Center in the Athletes’ Village for treatment and then returned to his accommodation.” According to the French newspaper L’Equipe, Michel was infected with E. coli and was hospitalised for four days after the race. The Olympic Committee announced that the Belgian team would not take part in the mixed triathlon relay on the 5th, and also issued a statement saying, “We hope that lessons can be learned from the Paris Games.” The Swiss Olympic Committee also announced that triathlon athlete Adlan Briford had contracted gastroenteritis and would miss the mixed relay on the 5th. “It is not possible to say with certainty whether there is a connection between the player’s illness and the quality of the Seine’s water,” the statement said. The mixed relay is scheduled to take place on the 5th, but official training sessions scheduled for the 3rd and 4th have been cancelled due to deteriorating water quality caused by rain.

Asahara explained the situation on January 26th, and just two days later, on January 28th, she apologized and deleted her comment, then went missing, and took her own life the following day, on January 29th. I think it would be a good idea to find out what happened to her between January 26th and January 28th.
