"Go To Eat" Infection prevention requirements discussion Proposal summary Government subcommittee September 4 22:15

In implementing "Go To Eat" to support restaurants affected by the spread of the new coronavirus, the government subcommittee placed and used seats at intervals to prevent infection. We have put together a proposal that calls for people to refrain from loud or excessive drinking.

With "Go To Eat," a business has already decided to issue a meal ticket that will add 25% of the purchase amount to 33 prefectures and prefectures, and it is expected to start in early regions this month.

Under these circumstances, the government subcommittee discussed the requirements for preventing infection when implementing "Go To Eat," and summarized the recommendations.

As a result, after asking for efforts to diversify the days and hours of use, we ask the participating stores to thoroughly arrange seats at intervals, etc. Will check using an evaluation site on the Internet.

In addition, when eating and drinking, the number of people is short and the time is short, and users are encouraged to refrain from loud or excessive drinking.

Furthermore, of the four stages classified by infection status, we will implement projects in areas corresponding to “Stage 3” where the number of infected people is rapidly increasing and “Stage 4” where explosive infection spread is occurring. The prefectural governor requires careful judgment.

In the recommendations compiled by the government subcommittee, in implementing the system, both the business operator and the user take infection prevention measures by recognizing the risk of infection due to meals, and a system that can trace the user when an infection occurs. In addition to securing it, he said that it should be an opportunity to think about the new way of eating out, such as distributing days and hours of use and space.

At a press conference after the subcommittee, Shigeru Omi said, "It is possible that the infection will spread after the start of "Go To Eat." In areas such as Stages 3 and 4, what should be started? I would like you to carefully consider what you should do later.Besides that the store side thoroughly implements measures, you can participate in a small number of people who use the store and you are not bound by the style of drinking parties so far , I hope it will be an opportunity to find a new way to eat.”
