Olympics The new corona infection prevention measures will be implemented at the Tokyo Olympics and Para Host Town at 17:30 on September 10th.

In preparation for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, which were postponed next year, Minister Hashimoto requested an online meeting with local governments working on exchange programs with participating countries to prepare a new coronavirus infection prevention manual.

The online conference was attended by approximately 360 people from Host Town who are working on exchange projects with participating countries and regions.



At the beginning, Minister Hashimoto said, "It is important to take measures to minimize the risk of infection with the new coronavirus and have the athlete team interact with the residents with peace of mind."



We asked the local government to prepare an infection prevention manual for practicing overseas students, staying at host towns, and conducting exchange programs with residents.



The local government commented that the government would want to bear the costs of the PCR test, etc., and told the government that it would consider the burden.
