In response to the rapid spread of the new coronavirus infection, Hiroshima Prefecture holds online meetings with businesses in the prefecture such as electricity, gas, and transportation, and takes measures against infection so that the social functions necessary for the lives of the citizens of the prefecture can be maintained. I called for thoroughness.
In addition to Governor Yuzaki, the person in charge of 12 businesses in the prefecture such as electricity, gas, and transportation participated in the meeting held online by Hiroshima Prefecture on the 8th.
Among them, Governor Yuzaki said that the number of infected people in the prefecture is increasing rapidly, so he reconfirmed the business continuity plan of each business operator and thoroughly implemented infection control measures for employees so that social functions can be maintained. I asked.
After that, opinions were exchanged privately, and according to the prefecture, the business operator made a business continuity plan based on the increase in the number of infected employees, and there was an opinion that they would like to respond according to the plan. So, if the infection continues to spread, the prefecture's inspection capacity will be exceeded, and there is concern that employees may not be able to undergo the inspection even if they want to.
After the meeting, Governor Yuzaki told reporters, "Okinawa Prefecture is beginning to be concerned about the tightness of the medical care provision system, and I think that the same thing can happen not only in medical care but also in lifelines in Hiroshima Prefecture. Employees are infected. If there are not enough people to go to work, the lifeline will be hindered, so I would like you to be fully prepared for emergencies. "
