The government's expert meeting has called on five prefectures, including Tokyo, to state that the medical system is urgent due to the spread of the new coronavirus, and to switch to a system that prioritizes severely ill patients.
In response to this, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has decided that in areas where the number of infected people is increasing rapidly, the number of beds may be insufficient, and if the municipality judges that mild or asymptomatic people will not be hospitalized, I want you to be recuperated.
If it is difficult to recuperate at home, such as living with elderly people or pregnant women, we are considering recuperating at a hotel or public facility rented by the municipality. I will include it in my budget.
Currently, in principle, all infected individuals are hospitalized, and if the symptoms are improved and the test is negative twice in a row, the patient is discharged, but the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare can be discharged as soon as the symptoms improve. We will notify the local government of the new standards on the third day.
