Most of the athletes quoted in that story are such fucking babies or just straight up lying.
One complains of not being able to get out of bed and wasting away to the point where their bones stick out because they're so weak, surviving only on a handful of pasta per day. Wow, super harsh for China not to provide food right? Actually she admits they do provide food but she "can't eat it". Why? Doesn't say, just doesn't like it I guess, so instead she's going to lie in bed and tweet about starving to death.
Others talk about the horrifying indignity and trauma of being taken in the middle of the night and isolated. Wow, sounds scary, snatched at 3am and taken to who knows where right? No, actually they say they rode in an ambulance after testing positive for Covid to a nice hotel for isolating Athletes with positive tests.
Any detail or reasoning on why the hotels are "inadequate" or they "can't eat the food"? Nope, just vague whining.
The article concludes by complaining about the weather, particularly that it's cold at the winter Olympics.

It's an amazing piece about nothing, it's one of those articles that would play well on a Chapo reading series.
"Mama Mia only a hands full a pasta?!"
