The government's subcommittee on measures against the new corona held a roundabout meeting on the 12th, and presented a proposal for further strengthening the measures for a limited time.
Among them, regarding the current situation, in Tokyo and other countries, despite the declaration of emergency, the number of people-to-people contact has not decreased, the number of infections has increased explosively, and the number of seriously ill people has increased, sacrificing ordinary medical care.

For example, in Tokyo, day and night compared to the first half of July before this state of emergency was declared. It is said that it is necessary to reduce the number of people by about 50%.
In areas where a state of emergency has been declared as a concrete measure, ▼ halve the opportunities to go out such as shopping, and ▼ strongly increase the number of people such as grocery stores and shopping malls in the basement of department stores, which are said to have a high risk of infection. We are demanding that we keep it down, ▼ further strengthen telework, ▼ avoid going out as much as possible, and refrain from moving across prefectures.
The plan calls for the national and local governments to strengthen the medical system by regarding the current situation as "disaster medical care", and asks for cooperation from medical institutions that have not been involved in corona response until now. If you feel unwell at work or at work, you should be encouraged to take an easy examination, and ▼ hospitalization adjustment should be done by strengthening the cooperation between the health center and the prefecture.
