In August and September of this year, the world will turn its attention to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for the 2016 Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games. Of interest to physiatrists, the Paralympic Games will take place from September 7 to 18, with an estimated total of 4 billion viewers. In the United States, for the first time in history, the Summer Games will be broadcast over a total of 66 hours on NBCUniversal. The Paralympic Games represent the pinnacle of elite sport for athletes with disabilities while also changing perceptions around the importance of grassroots sport and physical activity opportunities for the disability community more broadly.
今年8月和9月,全世界的目光将聚焦于巴西里约热内卢,迎接2016年夏季奥运会和残奥会。对于物理治疗师来说,残奥会将于9月7日至18日举行,预计全球观众总数将达40亿。在美国,夏季奥运会将有史以来首次在全国广播公司环球公司进行总计66小时的转播。残奥会不仅是残疾运动员精英体育的巅峰盛会,还更广泛地改变了人们对于基层体育以及残疾人群体体育活动机会重要性的看法。
