28 Self-Defense Forces members in training expanded with new corona infection barbecue? October 6, 4:23
It was confirmed that 28 SDF personnel who had been trained at one location from garrison locations nationwide were infected with the new coronavirus one after another, and the Ground Self-Defense Force went on holidays during the training period. I'm investigating in detail, assuming that the infection spread in the barbecue.
Infections have been confirmed one after another by SDF personnel who participated in the training held at the Asaka Camp, which straddles Tokyo and Saitama from July to last month.
According to the Ground Self-Defense Force, about 190 young female members from garrison locations all over the country participated in this training, and those who were confirmed to be infected by the 5th were from Hokkaido to Okinawa, including 24 garrison sites. There are 28 people.
Forty-four of the SDF members who participated in the training, who were in the same class, chartered a private bus on the 26th of last month, which was a holiday, and had a barbecue in Saitama prefecture. Means that everyone was participating in this barbecue.
The Ground Self-Defense Force is investigating the spread of the infection at this barbecue, as it seems that measures to prevent the infection were not sufficient, such as not sitting at intervals in the moving bus.
The Ground Self-Defense Force commented, "I would like to apologize for the great anxiety of the people. I would like to take thorough infection prevention measures and strive to restore trust."
