In response to the cancellation of the emergency declaration, Hyogo Prefecture decided to cancel the request for closure of facilities and other facilities from midnight on the 23rd. Meanwhile, Governor Ido called for refraining from unnecessary and urgent outings in preparation for the “second wave” of the spread of infection.

On the night of the 21st, Hyogo Prefecture held a countermeasure headquarters meeting after the declaration of an emergency was lifted, and decided a new response policy. Among them, we decided to cancel the request for leave to facilities etc. from midnight on the 23rd, except for some.

It will be canceled at gymnasium, indoor pool, bowling alley, skating rink, private room video store, internet cafe, cartoon cafe, outside horse ticket hall, mahjong store, pachinko store, game center, theme park, amusement park, etc. , Public halls, exhibition halls, etc.

On the other hand, we will continue to request closures for restaurants, karaoke boxes, gyms, etc. that are accompanied by entertainment at night when a group of infected people called clusters occur.

For restaurants including izakaya, we currently plan to cancel all requests that business hours are until 10 pm and liquor is served until 9 pm.

Furthermore, regarding the event, the policy is to allow the event to be held if the number of participants is 100 or less indoors and 200 or less outdoors.

Prefectural schools that are temporarily closed will be restarted from the 1st of the next month, and they will be required to take infection prevention measures such as distributed school attendance until the 14th.

However, we ask that the citizens of the prefecture continue to refrain from going out unnecessarily, returning home and traveling unnecessarily, traveling across prefectures, and participating in events that may cause "three congestion".

Governor Ido said at a press conference, "The declaration of emergency has been lifted, but we must prepare for the second wave of the spread of infection. We would like the citizens of the prefecture to continue to cooperate in preventing infection."
