Nishimura, the minister in charge of economic revitalization, pointed out that the number of people did not decrease during the three consecutive holidays until the 11th in Tokyo and other three prefectures, which are the targets of the state of emergency, and went out unnecessarily, including during the day. I called for self-restraint again.

On his Twitter account, Minister Nishimura pointed out that the number of people in each of the three prefectures did not decrease during the three consecutive holidays until the 11th, compared to the data from April last year when the state of emergency was last declared.



He said, "Especially the number of people in the daytime has not decreased. The risk of infection does not change even in the daytime. I want you to refrain from going out not only at night but also in the daytime."



In addition, "In 1 metropolitan area and 3 prefectures, the temperature and humidity have been low and the condition has been dry recently. According to the latest data, the infection tends to spread when the humidity drops. The infection has spread for a while. The situation will continue to be easy, so please be more careful. "



In addition, we called for cooperation again in ◇ promotion of telework to reduce the number of employees by 70% and ◇ refraining from unnecessary and unurgent movement including those across prefectures.
