Confirmation of whereabouts of corona-infected persons Police cooperated at 4:54 on July 23 at the request of the public health center

If there is a person who cannot be contacted after being found to have been infected with the new coronavirus, the police will cooperate with the confirmation of the whereabouts at the request of the public health center.

Cases where the person cannot be contacted after being found to have been infected with the new coronavirus have been confirmed in Tokyo and Kochi Prefecture.

The National Police Agency, in consultation with the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, decided to cooperate with the confirmation of whereabouts, such as checking where to stop, when the public health center requested the police in each prefecture.

At that time, police officers take thorough measures to prevent infection and take the privacy of infected people into consideration.

The National Police Agency has instructed polices nationwide about these matters, and will cooperate with related organizations in the future.
