Therefore, the lower the "hospitalization rate", the more patients cannot be accepted. In other words, medical care may be tight.



However, the government's "New Coronavirus Infectious Disease Control Subcommittee" does not apply in the following cases.



▼ When the number of medical treatment is less than 10 per 100,000 population.



▼ The number of new positives who need to be hospitalized can be hospitalized by the day after the notification of the outbreak.



No stage judgment is made for these municipalities.
