It has been one month in 19 days that the self-restraint of traveling across prefectures has been alleviated nationwide. The number of people newly infected on the 18th has increased more than 10 times compared to one month ago, and it can be seen that the momentum of infection spread is increasing.
On the 19th of last month, the self-restraint of traveling across prefectures was eased nationwide, and requests for suspension of work in Tokyo were completely lifted except for some large-scale events.
It will be one month in 19 days from relaxation or cancellation.
According to NHK's total, 6930 new infections were confirmed in Japan in the past month.
By prefecture, Tokyo has the largest number of people: 3517, Saitama 690, Kanagawa 540, Osaka 531, Chiba 348, etc. There are over 100 people in Fukuoka and Kagoshima.
On the other hand, no one was newly confirmed to have been infected in the past month in five prefectures: Iwate, Akita, Ehime, Saga, and Oita.
Looking at the number of newly confirmed infections on the 1st, the number was 58 on the 19th of last month nationwide, but it increased to 662 on the 18th, an increase of more than 11 times in a month. It can be seen that the momentum is increasing.
There are also cases where infections are confirmed after moving to other prefectures on business trips or trips in various places.
The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare is calling for thorough measures to prevent infection, such as avoiding so-called three dense places, even when traveling across prefectures.
