Experts “If the trend continues, it will be the next big wave of infection”

Professor Kazuhiro Tateda of Toho University, a member of the government's subcommittee on measures against the new coronavirus, said, "The number of infected people is on the rise, and it seems that it is starting to get stronger. Three consecutive holidays and summer holidays from June to July. The chances of human contact will increase. The effect of the vaccine will gradually weaken, and the Omicron strain "BA.5", which is pointed out to be highly infectious, is spreading throughout the city. This situation will continue for another two weeks. If it lasts for three weeks, we have to think about the possibility of the next big wave of infection. "

On top of that, "While accepting some infections, we will take measures to prevent explosive infections that exceed the 6th wave, as well as measures to protect elderly people at high risk of becoming severe and people with underlying diseases. It is important to take the above measures, and I would like you to remind yourself of the basic infection control measures that you have taken so far. "

In addition, regarding infection control in the heat of the heat, "If you suffer from heat stroke, some people will become seriously ill and die in a day or a few days, so it is necessary to consider heat stroke countermeasures first. When there is a risk of heat stroke Do not overdo it, and use it effectively, such as wearing it indoors or in situations where a large number of people talk. Even when using the cooler indoors, the temperature is about once an hour. It is also important to ventilate so that the temperature does not rise too much. "
