Shigeru Omi, chairman of the Advisory Committee on the Basic Response Policy, who attended the press conference of Prime Minister Suga, said, "The most important thing is to firmly recognize that there are factors that will cause the re-spread of infection. For example. Infections have remained high in Tokyo, the number of people has continued to increase for five weeks, and the annual events that boost infections such as Obon and summer vacation are approaching. Vaccination is one of the factors that suppress the spread of infection, but on the other hand, infection There are quite a few factors that can cause this to expand. "
On top of that, regarding the measures that will be required in the future, "Raising the vaccination rate quickly is a measure at 1-1. Also, it is very possible to test people in a cluster-prone group at the same time as strategic vaccination. It is important. As we ask the people to take strong measures, I think that stronger national and local government leadership is required. "
