In response to the spread of the new coronavirus, the government has demanded that all nations refrain from using restaurants with nightly customer service in downtown areas. The policy is to call for a more thorough reduction of contact opportunities, such as requesting a 70% reduction.

In response to the spread of the new coronavirus, Prime Minister Abe told the task force on November 11 that the use of restaurants with nightly customer service in downtown areas was "a lot of infections have already been confirmed and spread nationwide. "They are showing," he called for, including in Tokyo and other seven prefectures that are subject to the "Emergency Declaration" based on the law, and calling for self-restraint throughout the country.

Recognizing that the number of people commuting needs to be further reduced, the government has urged all businesses in the seven prefectures to use telework in principle, and to reduce attendance by at least 70% if necessary. .

Regarding efforts to reduce the chance of contact between people in seven prefectures as much as possible by 80%, the government has requested self-restraint so far, and the flow of people in major cities has decreased by about 40% to 60% compared to last November. However, although some effects have been achieved, some areas have been reduced by only about 10%, indicating that there are areas where efforts have not penetrated.

In light of these circumstances, the government has called for further cooperation from the public, stating that thorough reduction of contact opportunities is indispensable in order to complete the emergency declaration period in one month as scheduled.
