With the spread of the new coronavirus mainly in metropolitan areas such as Tokyo, the government calls for refraining from the use of restaurants with entertainment that has not taken infection control measures, and also plans to request leave, and with the local government We want to work together to prevent the spread of infection.
The number of new cases of the new coronavirus is 293 in Tokyo on the 17th, the highest number ever, and the infection is spreading mainly in metropolitan areas.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Suga has repeatedly acknowledged that although the number of hospitalized patients is on the rise, the number of seriously ill patients is still small and the medical care provision system is not under pressure, and that no emergency situation is being declared.
On the other hand, the government, in addition to entertaining restaurants such as bars and clubs, has become a trigger for the spread of infections and drinking parties, so based on the Special Measures Law for Countermeasures against New Coronavirus, such stores are prevented. In addition to requesting compliance with these guidelines, we are calling for refraining from using stores that do not.
Then, after carefully assessing the effects of these measures, we plan to consider requesting leave for stores that do not follow the guidelines.
On the 17th, the government notified the prefectural governors of this policy, and Nishimura's minister in charge of economic revitalization asked the governors of the 1st and 3rd prefectures in the Tokyo metropolitan area to cooperate with each other in a coordinated manner. We want to work together to prevent the spread of infection.
