It is not unusual for Japan to spread corona these days. In Tokyo alone, there were over 600 in Japan, including around 300 confirmed in one day.

Yesterday (16th) more than 600 new corona confirmed people from all over Japan.

More than 600 confirmed people are almost 100 days after 720 people on April 11th.

In particular, Tokyo has the highest number of 286 people per day.

The infection that began to spread around the big city entertainment districts spread rapidly to the workplace and home.

In addition, in Okinawa, where 138 US soldiers have been confirmed to be infected on Sunday, the Japanese taxi driver who came to the base has been confirmed, and fear of spreading outside the base has become a reality.

Recently, the daily curve of new confirmers in Japan is approaching the situation just before the emergency declaration three months ago.

There is also an analysis that the trend of increase in the number of confirmed persons is'second wave', that is, replay.

[Omagari/International Director of Infectious Diseases Center: It may be known only after a while, but it is certain that (second wave) approached quite well.] As the

quarantine situation became serious, the Abe government began to come home from the 22nd to revitalize the regional economy. The decision to subsidize travel expenses was also on the cutting board, but the Japanese government has stepped back to exclude Tokyo from travel subsidies.

However, the voice of criticism is growing that passive anti-corruption measures can not stop corona replay.
