New Corona Okinawa Prefecture's original emergency declaration Canceled in 5 days without extension September 4 17:13
Regarding the declaration of an emergency situation unique to the prefecture due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, which will expire on the 5th, Okinawa Prefecture will cancel it within 5 days without extending it, as the number of infected people in the prefecture is decreasing. I decided.
The number of new-type coronavirus infections in Okinawa Prefecture has remained the highest in Japan for every 100,000 population per week, but has been declining since peaking in early August.
For this reason, Okinawa Prefecture decided not to extend the prefecture's own emergency declaration, which is due on the 5th, at the Countermeasures Headquarters Meeting held on the afternoon of the 4th, and to cancel it within 5 days.
The prefecture's declaration of an emergency started on August 1 and was extended for two weeks from last month's 16th due to the fact that the spread of infection could not be stopped. It was extended and continued for over a month.
