Temporary closure request "May be distorted in society" Mayor Chiba February 28 14:31
Chiba City Mayor Toshihito Kumagai said, "The first step is to take thorough measures to prevent infections on high-risk adults, and we believe that this will be addressed in response to Prime Minister Abe's request for cooperation with companies. It is not possible to make a judgment that we will not do it alone because we are actually doing the request, but we take it as a national decision because we are responsible for the government. "
In response to the request for a three-week school break, Chiba City tentatively decided to take about two weeks, saying, "We need to give a firm explanation of why it was up to the spring break. I would like to make sure that the government has enough epidemiological grounds to replace it, and that the city may be affected by various kinds of distortions. We will do our utmost to overcome the difficult situation. "
