BEIJING—Organizers of February’s Winter Olympics in Beijing said Friday that two foreign athletes had tested positive for COVID-19 in ongoing test events for the Games.
They also expressed sympathy for a Polish luge competitor who cracked his left kneecap and suffered deep cuts on his right leg at the Olympic sliding center this week in a crash that has been blamed on human error.
