Only one medal so far. Last year they had 17. Are there any explanations?

Good question. dunno.
It is not related to drugs.
Or maybe it is.
Athletes from countries that are at war, as Russia with Ukraine and their own governmnt lying about it, upping censorship, moving military back and forth around the whole nation, having oppositional leaders shot down in the streets etc, those athletes tend to have their minds partly elsewhere methinks...
The iaaf is waiting till after worlds to ban a lot of athletes. Maybe they got a letter and didn't show up. Plus the doping scandal doesn't help.
