Going into cluster measures from the new government corona November 12, 4:32

As the number of people infected with the new coronavirus is increasing nationwide, the government plans to take more in-depth cluster measures in cooperation with prefectures to prevent the spread of the infection.

A meeting of experts who advised the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare on the nationwide infection status of the new coronavirus evaluated that "the increase has been increasing since November," and the Japan Medical Association considered it to be "the third wave." Isn't it okay? "



The government says it is not in a state of emergency at this stage, but plans to take more in-depth cluster measures to prevent the spread of the infection.



Specifically, in collaboration with prefectures, we are considering requesting people involved in restaurants with entertainment to carry out intensive PCR tests or to narrow down the area and shorten the business hours of restaurants. I'm going to do it.



We will also analyze SNS to find the cluster as soon as possible.

In addition, we will remind ourselves of the "five scenes" that increase the risk of infection, such as social gatherings that accompany drinking alcohol, breaks at work, and smoking, and call for thorough countermeasures. And humidity control is also promoted.



The government will hold an expert subcommittee on the 12th to discuss these measures.
