The Tokyo Metropolitan Government will enter the period of the fourth state of emergency from the 12th, and will request the restaurants that serve sake to close.

With the opening of the Olympic Games approaching next week, the challenge is to be able to control infections that affect the success or failure of the Games while gaining understanding and cooperation from the strong measures under the Declaration.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government will enter the period of the fourth state of emergency from the 12th, and the declaration will be issued again within a month after the previous and third declarations were lifted.



With this declaration, the capital will request that restaurants that provide liquor and karaoke facilities be closed, and if they do not, they will be open until 8:00 pm.



In addition, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government urges the citizens of Tokyo to refrain from going out and moving unnecessarily, including during the daytime, and to refrain from moving across prefectures, such as returning home or traveling.



The opening of the Olympic Games is approaching next Friday, 23rd, and the issue is whether we can control the infection related to the success or failure of the Games while gaining the understanding and cooperation of the strong measures under the Declaration.
