Candy Jacobs has been in isolation for eight days and missed the street event in skateboarding’s debut as an Olympic sport. “Not having any outside air is so inhuman,” the 31-year-old Jacobs said in a video message posted on Instagram. “Having that first breath of outside air was the saddest and best moment in my life,” Jacobs said. The International Olympic Committee and Tokyo organizers did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
