On the 15th, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare notified local governments nationwide of specific points to note.
According to this, masks are not recommended for children under 2 years old, and even if they are over 2 years old, they may not feel stuffy, vomiting or foreign substances in their mouths, depending on whether they are wearing them properly. It is necessary to pay close attention to changes in the child's physical condition, such as whether or not they have entered.
We ask that you do not force yourself against the intentions of your child or guardian, and that even if the guardian intends to wear it, if a nursery teacher or the like finds it difficult to wear it, do not force it.
And while it is recommended to wear it only in situations where children can see it when crowding is unavoidable indoors, it is not recommended to wear it because you often move your body outdoors, and you should wear a mask when taking a nap. I'm calling to remove it.
