JR East Shinkansen ticket gate to deploy disinfectant solution for passengers February 4 17:54

In response to the spread of the new coronavirus, JR East decided to put a disinfectant solution to be used by passengers near the Shinkansen ticket gates for prevention.

JR East obliges station staff to wear a mask at the nearest station of Narita Airport and recommends wearing it at other stations to prevent the transmission of the new coronavirus.

At the press conference yesterday, JR East President Yuji Fukasawa said, "In addition to measures to prevent infection by employees themselves, we will also respond to places where there are many overseas customers."

In addition to the `` Inbound Travel Center '', which sells tickets to foreigners at the airport and Tokyo Station, places disinfectants near the Shinkansen ticket gates at Tokyo Station and Ueno Station and uses them freely for passengers. I've made it clear that I can get it.

On the other hand, President Fukasawa has already canceled about 100 million yen for booking a hotel operated by a group company, and said that the impact of the spread of the new type of coronavirus on business performance has been canceled so far. After clarifying that reservations for tour tickets have been canceled for 10 million yen, he said, "I am watching the trend because prolonged prolongation will have further effects."
