Shigeru Omi, chairman of the government subcommittee, said at a press conference with Minister Nishimura on the night of the 9th about the "vaccine / test package" that proves that he has been vaccinated and that the test was negative. Consensus is very important when it comes to when to use the package, and we emphasize that we want a national debate. For example, it is obligatory to introduce the package during club activities at the university. There is an idea of ​​whether to do it, to make it a school-specific rule, or to make a looser request. Also, is it sufficient to have a system to certify that the restaurant has anti-inoculation measures, or a package? There are various options in each place, such as whether vaccination or testing is necessary by introducing the mechanism of. While listening to the opinions of the business operators, it is necessary to discuss the difficulties and conditions of introducing the system and the merits of the system, and then convince everyone. "

In addition, Mr. Omi said that the government's idea for the recovery of daily life in the future is "I think it is a direction to loosen it in the situation where the current state of emergency continues." , "There is a possibility that strong measures will be taken again even after this declaration is lifted. However, in that case, the vaccination rate will increase and new therapeutic agents will come out, etc. It seems that the environment is different, and we have to think about what to do in that environment. We think that even if we take strong measures such as a state of emergency, we need to have a fundamental discussion about what to do. I would like to gather wisdom and make proposals from now on. "

Minister of Economic Revitalization Nishimura "I want to proceed with materialization while having a national debate."

At a press conference, Mr. Nishimura, the minister in charge of economic revitalization, commented on his thoughts on the recovery of daily life in the future. It means that we will start discussions about introducing vaccination when it reaches a certain level. "



On top of that, "Experts have suggested that we should have a national discussion. I hope that both businesses and those who use it will understand when it is useful to use the" vaccine / test package ".
