As we read, IOC and IPC are working with international federations to make changes to Olympic qualifying, which has been impacted by several events being cancelled. World Archery will make public the outcomes of those decisions.  

As IOC President Bach stated: “We wish that the Olympic flame could become the light at the end of the tunnel in which the world finds itself at present”.
