It was confirmed that a male employee in his 30s at the NHK news agency was infected with the new coronavirus.

The staff had symptoms of fever, so they visited a medical institution on the 12th and underwent an antigen test, which confirmed the infection.



The route of infection is unknown.



I am in charge of interviews in the Diet, etc., and although I have not been certified as a close contact so far, the health center is supposed to identify it.



At NHK, we disinfected the places where the staff stopped by for interviews.



There is no impact on the broadcast, and we will continue to contact the health center to prevent the spread of the infection.
