At a press conference, Chairman Nakagawa of the Japan Medical Association said that the behavior of the long holidays would have a great impact on the future infection situation, and thoroughly implemented basic infection control measures, especially for the younger generation. He called for a third dose of the new corona vaccine before the holidays.

Among them, Chairman Nakagawa of the Japan Medical Association said, "The behavior of the long holidays has a great influence on the infection situation in the future. Wearing a mask, washing hands and disinfecting fingers, avoiding crowded scenes, and ventilating well. I would like to ask you to take thorough measures against infections such as these, and to take actions such as not making a fuss with as few people as possible when traveling or eating and drinking. "



On top of that, regarding the third vaccination, "It takes about a week or two from the vaccination until the effect appears. People who have not been vaccinated, especially young people, are actively vaccinated now before the start of the Golden Week holidays. Thinking about that, I want you to get the vaccination as soon as possible. "



In addition, Chairman Nakagawa pointed out that the fourth vaccination "may start with the elderly and those with underlying illnesses."
