Regarding the infection status of the new coronavirus, Okayama Prefecture has four stages indicated by the government, such as 70% of newly infected people who are thought to have been infected with a mutant virus, which has been pointed out to have strong infectivity. Among them, he showed the decision to raise from the lowest "Stage 1" to "Stage 2".
In Okayama Prefecture, at a meeting of the prefecture's new coronavirus infectious disease control headquarters held on the 2nd, a person who seems to have been infected with a mutant virus, which has been pointed out to have stronger infectivity than before, was newly infected the previous week. It was revealed that the number was 3 out of 45, but in the last week it was 41 out of 58, which is 70%.
Governor Ibaragi said, "Infection is increasing mainly among young people, and the proportion of people who do not know the infection route is close to 50%. Since the number of infections is increasing, there is concern about the spread of infections in the future. " ..
The prefecture is becoming more vigilant because if the mutant virus infection becomes mainstream, the infection may spread faster than ever before.
In the future, as a general rule, we will carry out tests to confirm whether or not it is a mutant virus for all infection routes, and in principle, those who are diagnosed with the mutant virus will be hospitalized at a medical institution to secure a medical and medical treatment system. I am planning to do it.
