As the infection of the new coronavirus continues to spread, Okinawa Prefecture will extend the request for shortening business hours to restaurants in five cities until 31st of this month, and will also newly target Miyakojima City and Ishigaki City. I decided.
Okinawa Prefecture has requested restaurants in five cities, Naha City, Urasoe City, Okinawa City, Nago City, and Ginowan City, to shorten their business hours to 10 pm on the 8th. The countermeasures headquarters meeting decided on future measures.
According to this, although some effects can be seen in controlling the spread of infection in the five cities, it is necessary to continue to strengthen infection control measures, such as the occurrence of a group of infected people = clusters at the end of the year.
For this reason, the prefecture has extended the request for shortening business hours from the 12th of this month to the 31st of this month, and decided to target Miyakojima City and Ishigaki City, where infections at restaurants are occurring one after another.
A flat rate of 800,000 yen will be provided to businesses that respond to requests throughout the extended period.
In addition, the prefecture called for refraining from unnecessary and unurgent traffic to and from the three prefectures in which the government declared a state of emergency, and will continue to minimize movement between the main island of Okinawa, remote islands, and remote islands. I am asking.
