Spread fear and scare for what??

????So they can let up on restrictions for incoming tourist who have sit crammed together in a flight for hours but running in a group where distance to your next should be the last worry for people pushing them self trough a Marathon is a no no???? But well today sports events seems anyway more to be  about getting a t-shirt and selfies than the sport itself so yes in a way I can see the concern to the organizer.
