In response to the rapid spread of the new coronavirus, Osaka Prefecture began requesting leave for recreation facilities, sports facilities, and amusement centers at midnight on the 14th.

Osaka Prefecture, which has been the subject of the “Emergency Declaration”, urges people to refrain from going out unless it is necessary to maintain their lives, but the spread of the infection has not stopped.

In response to this situation, Osaka Prefecture began requesting a leave at midnight on the 14th for amusement facilities, exercise facilities, and a playground where an unspecified number of people could easily gather. The request period is until the 6th of next month.

All requests are
▼ Entertainment facilities such as nightclubs, internet cafes, and karaoke boxes,
Movie theaters, theaters, theaters,
▼ Meeting and exhibition facilities,
▼ Athletic facilities such as gymnasiums and sports clubs,
▼ Amusement halls such as Mahjong stores and pachinko parlors,
▼ Museums, art galleries, libraries,
▼ And educational facilities.

For restaurants including izakaya, we request that business hours be from 5 am to 8 pm and liquor served until 7 pm, as in Tokyo.

Hyogo Prefecture also plans to start a leave request similar to Osaka Prefecture from midnight on the 15th.
