Chiba Prefecture will take stricter measures than before, such as requesting that restaurants in 12 cities near Tokyo refrain from serving alcohol all day after the state of emergency is declared to Tokyo from the 25th. I decided.
Chiba Prefecture will hold a meeting of the countermeasures headquarters on the 24th to expand the target area of "priority measures such as spread prevention" from 5 cities in the northwestern part of the prefecture to 12 cities including Chiba city in order to curb the flow of people from Tokyo. I decided.
On top of that, restaurants in these areas will be open until 8:00 pm and will take stricter measures, such as requesting that they refrain from serving alcohol throughout the day.
In addition, we request large commercial facilities and other facilities to tighten admission restrictions throughout the prefecture so that congestion does not occur inside the store.
In addition, we urge the citizens of the prefecture to refrain from going out unnecessarily and urgently, and to refrain from going to and from areas where an emergency has been declared, and to refrain from drinking in groups on the streets or in parks.
Chiba Prefecture will make these requests for 14 days from the 28th of this month to the 11th of next month.
At a press conference, Governor Kumagai said, "I am sorry for the new request, but I understand to the citizens of the prefecture that it is important to intensively control infection in a short period of time by taking strong measures at the timing of the long holidays when socio-economic activities slow down. I will do my best to explain it so that I can receive it. "

A patrol survey will be conducted at all restaurants regarding thorough infection prevention measures such as shortening business hours.
If you do not respond to the request without a justifiable reason, the prefecture can order you to comply with the request, and you can also perform on-site inspections.

Request to the citizens of the prefecture
We request the citizens of the prefecture to thoroughly refrain from going out unnecessarily and urgently in all areas of the prefecture.
Given that the number of people infected with the mutant virus is increasing, we requested that we "strictly refrain" from coming and going to areas such as Tokyo where a state of emergency has been declared.
As a precaution when eating and drinking, it is also possible to refrain from using restaurants that do not respond to requests for shortening business hours, to refrain from group drinking on the streets and parks, and to refrain from so-called "home drinking" where people gather and drink at private homes. I'm calling.

Requests to limit the number of people at events continue throughout the prefecture, and if the number of people is 5,000 or less and a loud voice is expected, the capacity of the facility is 50% or less.

In the target area of "Priority Measures", 40,000 to 100,000 yen per store per day depending on the sales amount of last year or the previous year for small and medium-sized enterprises, and last year or before for large enterprises. 40% of the decrease in daily sales of the food and beverage department in the fiscal year will be paid up to 200,000 yen per store.
In areas not covered by the "Priority Measures", SMEs will be paid 25,000 to 75,000 yen per day depending on their sales.
