The number of new infections in Tokyo has reached a new record high...

 

 
And today, the number of new infections seems to have been quite high nationwide.

First of all, I will summarize

 Every day, the number of infected people is gradually increasing in prefectures other than Tokyo these days, and the infection has been confirmed even in the areas where the infection had subsided. ..

 

So today, I would like to summarize not only the neighborhood of Tokyo but also the prefectures with a large number of infected people.

It is not listed because the details are not known, but in addition to the above, infections of 10 or more people have also been confirmed in Aichi prefecture, Kyoto prefecture, Hyogo prefecture, etc.

 


This is a quote from the summary article on July 12,

on July 12, Mr. Yasutoshi Nishimura, Minister of Economic Rehabilitation, at a press conference on the 12th, said that the number of people infected with COVID-19 is increasing in four prefectures of Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama, and Chiba.

So he expressed his desire to request of business suspension, depending on the future situation.

https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/b8d176cf83208d3fa96ae7343fe4df27f224fda4

As a result of leaving increase of the infection so far in order to protect the people in "the entertainment district at night of ​​Tokyo", not only 14 million people in Tokyo but also 37 million people in 4 prefectures, the government limit their action.

 

So I would like goverment to avoid requests for business suspension if possible,

so I really hope that the number of newly infected people in Tokyo will continue to fall...

 


And another quote from yesterday's summary article...

And, on July 13, there was another press conference by Minister Nishimura on the 13th, Since the "Go To Campaign" has begun and it is expected that there will be more movements across prefectures,

・If you feel unwell, refrain from going out.

・Avoid buffets when eating in tourist areas.

Called them attention.

And it seems that it has made clear that it is proceeding with making adjustments so that the "three dense" precautions will be broadcasting on airplanes and bullet trains.

https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/20200713/k10012513211000.html?utm_int=news-new_contents_list-items_012

 

 

 

I mean...

It's not in focus...

 

 

And...
After a week or so, the "Go To Campaign" will start, and I wonder if it really starts in this situation. .. .. ?

 

(Even I, a citizen of Tokyo and involved in the tourism industry)

I'm in favor of excluding Tokyo in the "Go To Campaign", but I don't think it's a case of planning anymore if other regions are confirmed to have double-digit infection. ..

 

 

 

But..., it seems that the government will finally take effective measures,

Minister Nishimura's economic revitalization, has finally taken the stance of taking measures. 

https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/807d8d9feb8e535a47b725f0c856617ea3d9f00e

It seems that he showed the idea of ​​encouraging local governments to business suspension request for restaurants with entertainment such as ”host clubs” and "Cabaret club" in 1 prefecture and 3 prefectures of Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama, Chiba (depending on the infection situation).

 

Also he said,

"At this point, I don't think of requesting of business suspension from a wide range of sectors like when an emergency was declared."

 

When requesting of business suspension in a specific area, pointing out the adverse effect that employees and customers move to another area or hide and operate,

"Whether it is the entire metropolitan area or only Tokyo area, while also looking at the living area and economic area? We have to think about whether or not we will do it."

He had shown the idea of ​​having an expert analyze this week.

 

 

According to the measures compiled by Tokyo Metropolitan Government, Shinjuku, and Toshima Wards on the 10th,

if the places of ”the entertainment district at night" do not comply with the guideline, they may consider about bisiness suspension request depending on the situation.

 

 It seems that Kagoshima is from July 8, Saitama is from July 13, these prefecture has already started requesting of business suspension for "the entertainment district at night" where measures against COVID-19 are insufficient.

 

 

I really want them to do them best in the "infection prevention" part!

 

 

I have summarized some of the comments and thoughts of the Tokyo metropolitan government and the government of Japan, as well as politicians, experts, and people from all over the world about this "explosion of infection in Tokyo," so please take a look.

Second one is here that,

小池都知事「感染拡大警報」発すべき状況 警戒レベル引き上げ | NHKニュース

Governor Koike said that he should raise the alert level to the maximum level, saying that "the infection spread warning should be issued" in Tokyo.

 

 

It's refreshing now...

I'm feeling...

 

 

I wanted them to deal with it before it happened...

 

 

And also governor Koike consistently claims that the increase in the number of confirmed infections in Tokyo is due to the increased number of tests.

According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, the average number of PCR and antibody tests carried out in Tokyo in the week ending July 14 is over 3,200. When the first wave of infection spread in April of this year, the average number of cases per day is about 1,000, which is a significant increase.

 

The factor that increased

・Expansion of dedicated outpatient departments that can be inspected at medical institutions

・Introduction support for inspection equipment

・Local people actively call for inspection at the "entertainment district at night"


In addition, it is said that it will take about 3 days from the time of the inspection to the confirmation of the infection, and the large number of inspections on Monday led to an increase in the number of new infections on 16th today, an executive in Tokyo believes.

東京都 新たに286人感染確認 感染者数1日で最多に 新型コロナ | NHKニュース

Since the positive rate has also risen from 1% to 6% or more, the infection is simply expanding without a doubt. Not only because of the increased number of tests.

 

I wonder if I will take appropriate measures soon... ..

 

 

 

Moreover, the measures to be taken from now on are that

To call attention to thorough infection prevention measures based on the guidelines

To put "infection prevention thorough declaration sticker" on the store front.

...

 



 

 

And here's a trial calculation of how many people in Japan are actually receiving medical treatment.

 

(Number of people infected nationwide) 24,947

+ (Number of hospital discharges )  998

+ (Number of hospital discharges ) 19,755

= 4,194 people ← being treated 

 

(If it is exactly as announced)
After all, there are over 4000 people today. ..

 

 

 

 

Please be very careful when you go out!
