As the spread of the new coronavirus continues to grow, women who are refraining from giving birth are worried. In some cases, the hospital that was scheduled to give birth cannot be accepted, and there are cases in which the hospital is looking for another place.
Nanako Suzuki (25), who lives in Taito-ku, Tokyo, plans to give birth to her first child at the end of this month. Mr. Suzuki decided to give birth at a longevity general hospital in Taito-ku, Tokyo, near his home, and went to regular medical examinations, but at the end of last month, about a month before the expected date of birth, he said, " I was no longer able to accept it. "
Yongju General Hospital is the largest hospital in Taito Ward with about 400 beds, but inpatients were infected with the new coronavirus one after another and had to cancel outpatient treatment.
I was introduced to an alternative hospital, but it was said that it was a place that took about 1 hour one way, so I had no choice but to find it myself.
I finally decided to give birth at a nearby maternity hospital, but I am worried that the schedule will change from the beginning and it will be an unfamiliar environment.
Mr. Suzuki said, "I didn't expect this to happen. I would like the government and local governments to create an environment in which children can be born with peace of mind."
According to Taito Ward, there were quite a few people planning to give birth at Yongju General Hospital, but all of them were forced to change to another hospital.

Also, it is said that the operating company of the site is worried about being unable to witness the birth of the husband etc. to prevent infection, and there is a compelling voice that I do not know what to do if I get infected during pregnancy.
