In October, the National Institute of Infectious Diseases released a report on a bus tour in Hokkaido where participants and others were infected with the new coronavirus.
As the infection may have spread due to microdroplets and contact, it is advisable to take measures such as ventilation during breaks and prohibition of eating in the car on the tour.
In October, 19 people including passengers were infected with the new coronavirus during a bus tour conducted by Yomiuri Travel Service in Tokyo in Hokkaido, and the National Institute of Infectious Diseases released a report in December.
According to this, in the bus, infected people were confirmed along the air flow, mainly those who were first confirmed to be infected.
Due to the crowded and sealed situation of passengers, the infection may have spread even with tiny "microdroplets" in addition to contact.
Passengers and crew members always wore masks, so the report stated that as a further measure against infection, cleaning and disinfection were carried out mainly in areas that were frequently touched, ventilation during breaks, and prohibition of meals including light meals. It is desirable to take.
In addition, since many elderly people participate in these tours and prompt identification of close contacts is required, it is necessary for the government to share roles with travel agencies and carry out training, etc. I am also looking for.
