Zika seems like such a pathetic healthcare emergency after we could freak out about Ebola in '14. Shrunken heads have nothing on hemorhraging fevers.

The IOC will never put people's general wellbeing over their prime directive: making lots of money. Brazil has spent a ton of money on the olympics and they simply cannot afford to let their investment go to waste. A change of venue just a few months before the olympics start is impossible so the olympics would be cancelled, not moved. That means a whole generation of athletes will not get to compete in a competition they have been working towards for 4+ years. Rio 2016 will go ahead as planned.

If it's just gonna lead to a huge bunch of people getting infected and then going back to their countries and spreading it more, screw it, sorry guys but you'll have to set your shot-put etc. skills to work elsewhere until next time. The main point was really that the 2 parties able to cancel it the government of brazil and the IOC have no interest in doing so. Maybe it should be cancelled. But it won't be.
