New corona infection management training for evacuation shelters that do not spread Takaoka Okayama June 7 15:18

In preparation for a heavy rain, a drill was conducted in Takahashi City, Okayama Prefecture, a disaster area of ​​western Japan to prevent the spread of new coronavirus infections.

The training was held at 18 designated evacuation centers in anticipation of a heavy rain warning.

Of these, about 40 people participated in the “Takahashi City Cultural Exchange Center”, including city hall staff and local residents.

The person in charge of the city put on a face shield, etc., and took the temperature of people who evacuated at the entrance, and listened to their physical condition.

Then, people with symptoms such as fever were checking the procedure to have them move to a private room in the building from another entrance instead of the front entrance.

Also, in the room where people with no symptoms waited, in order to keep the distance from each other, we used tape to make sections of about 2 meters square, and we also conducted training to assemble a tent to shield the surroundings.

A woman in her 40s who participated said, "I think we had a so-called "dense" situation during the heavy rains in western Japan. I learned about infectious disease control during today's training, so I want to evacuate with confidence." ..

Yuichi Ishida, Deputy Manager of the Takahashi City Citizen's Division, said, "There was a crowd at the entrance during the training, so I would like to make it a future issue."
