Yoshikazu Nonomura, chairman of the J.League soccer team, expressed his intention to consider a support style that is prohibited as an infection control measure, including a review in the future.
Chairman Nonomura, who took office on the 15th of this month, attended the new coronavirus countermeasures liaison conference for professional baseball and the J.League held on the 22nd.
At the meeting after the meeting, Chairman Nonomura said, "I want to gather scientific grounds and listen to the opinions of experts" about the cheering style that the J.League prohibits as an infection control. In order to increase the number of infections again, he expressed his intention to consider including a review in the future.
After that, she said, "I would like to consult with an expert on what kind of scientific basis to base on and prepare to accumulate data," and concretely consider it based on the data on the risk of infection by speaking out. I'm going to go.
Mitsuo Kaku, a specially appointed professor at Tohoku Medical and Pharmaceutical University, who chairs the conference's expert team, said, "It is true that making a loud voice makes it easier for the infection to spread, but it shows how much you can prevent the infection by wearing a mask. There is also evidence. I would like to have a situation where I can support aloud while referring to these things. "
