Change to coping policy Restricted except for 13 prefectures Adjusted due to partial relaxation May 3 at 15:15

The government intends to change the “Basic Response Policy” in line with the extension of the emergency declaration. "Specific cautionary prefectures" demand the same behavior restrictions as before, while other prefectures are adjusting to relax some of the restrictions on the premise of thoroughly implementing "new lifestyle". .

Regarding the emergency declaration that will expire 3 days later, the government will change the "basic response policy" on the 4th, while officially deciding to extend it for about one month while keeping the target area nationwide. We are in the process of making adjustments and the original draft has become clear.

Among these, there are 13 "special caution prefectures" such as Tokyo and Osaka that require the same action restrictions as before, as "the situation of infection differs between special caution prefectures and other prefectures". The prefecture has adopted a policy of easing some of the restrictions on the premise of thoroughly implementing a "new lifestyle" centered on avoiding the "three secrets".

Specifically, with regard to self-restraint when going out, specific caution prefectures continue to request self-restraint except for those necessary for maintaining their lives and health, and have set the goal of "80% reduction in contact opportunities."

On the other hand, in other prefectures, we ask that we refrain from continuing to refrain from moving out of the prefecture or using restaurants that are associated with entertainment in the downtown area. Hmm.

Regarding the request for leave, the specified vigilance prefectures will maintain the current policy, but at that time, in consideration of the impact on the lives and health of residents, it is also possible to open outdoor parks and museums. In addition to.

Other prefectures require each prefecture to make a judgment according to the actual situation in the area.

Employees who work in the workplace have set a goal of "70% reduction in the number of employees" in specified alert prefectures, but in other prefectures, efforts to reduce contact with people after excluding them Wants to continue.

Regarding the school, it says, "In accordance with the local infection situation, we will give maximum consideration to the prevention of infection and then gradually restart school education activities to create an environment where children and students can learn." I will.

The government has added other prefectures to the 13 “special warning prefectures” that need to proceed with a specific extension period and particularly focused efforts, while paying close attention to the trends of infected persons in each region and the healthcare provision system. We are proceeding with adjustments such as whether or not to do it.
