Regarding priority measures such as prevention of the spread of new corona measures, the government will lift it if the number of newly infected people is expected to decrease slightly or remain high due to the heavy burden on socio-economic activities. We have summarized a new way of thinking that we can do.
The government will hold a subcommittee on measures against the new corona on the 11th, and will show a new way of thinking about the priority measures such as spread prevention applied in 18 prefectures, saying that it will have a heavy burden on socio-economic activities.
Specifically, even if the number of newly infected people is increasing slightly or staying high, it can be canceled if the bed usage rate or the burden on medical care is expected to decrease.
In addition, even if the bed usage rate and the usage rate of severely ill beds exceed 50%, if the number of newly infected people is declining and the bed usage rate and the burden on medical care are expected to decrease, it can be canceled in the same way. increase.
On the other hand, regarding measures to alleviate behavioral restrictions, even in large-scale events, infection control plans are formulated, and if there is no loud voice, there are almost no clusters, so the number is set to 20,000 in the target areas of priority measures. In principle, the policy is to abolish the limit on the number of people, regardless of whether vaccination or testing is done.
In addition, regarding border measures, the government has decided to raise the maximum number of immigrants per day from the current 5,000 to 7,000 from 14th this month, but after strengthening the quarantine system, next month We are also considering whether we can raise the number to 10,000.
