The number of new infections in Tokyo has dropped by about 50 from yesterday.

 

 

However (although last week),

the number of infected people decreased a little bit on Wednesday, and when I feel relieved, there are many patterns that the number increased dramatically on Thursday, so I have to be careful.

 

 

Well, I will summarize

the breakdown of the number of new infections in Tokyo + α .

 

 

Out of [263] new infections in Tokyo

 

・Today's newly infected people are men and women in their under10 to 90s

 

[163] people is in their 20s to 30s

  (about 62% of the total)

 

 [9] people is

   *Including those with unknown routes of infection


Infection at home [25] people

***  Information on poeple under medical treatment in Tokyo  ***

Number of seriously ill :  21 ( -1)

Home medical treatment : 498 ( -10)

Adjusting for "hospitalization or hotel or home treatment" : 870 ( -50)

People discharged from hospital or

those who have completed medical treatment at home:10,687 ( --)

 *( )= increse  from the day before

 

*Tokyo currently has 5 facilities for infected people

 (Capacity of 1260 people)

*Plans to increase the number of accepted hotels or facilities by 1 within this month

 

* A hospital in Tokyo has secured 2400 beds (+100 beds for critically ill patients).

 → Aim to secure 2,800 beds.

 

*The hotels is that,

"the b Hachiouji", "the b Ikebukuro", "DayniceHOTEL Tokyo",

"Toyoko INN Shinjukukabukicho", "Toyoko INN Tokyo Station Shinoohashimae"

"Shinagawa Prince Hotel (East Tower)"

* 東京都福祉保健局 *3施設追加|東京都

 

 

 

Rich contacts [101] people

   (about 38% of the total)

Unknown infection route [162] people

    (about 62% of the total)

 

Quarantine at the airport

  Arriving at Narita/Kansai Airport

    → Men and women from the Philippines,

      Brazil and India [8] people
    → Arrived on August 4 to 5
    → All asymptomatic infected

 

 

*Since the number of new infections in Tokyo seems to be almost the number of the previous day,

(Because the deadline for the number of new infections on the day is from 9:00 am the day before to 9:00 am on the day)

 

 

 


Even so, why is the number of new infections so low on Wednesday?

The reason why the number of Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays is low is fixed because the person in charge of Tokyo said yesterday that there are many medical institutions that are closed on Saturdays and Sundays, but Wednesday is a mystery...

 

 

And Tokyo is from August 3,

"Request to shorten business hours to restaurants that provide alcoholic beverages“

started!

東京都 酒提供の飲食店など きょうから営業時間短縮を要請 | NHKニュース

Target:All karaoke shops

       All restaurants that serve alcoholic beverages

        (For approximately 40,000 businesses)

Period:August 3rd-August 31st

Hours:Until 10 pm

Remark:

Stores that have taken proper measures and posted a "Declaration of thorough infection prevention sticker" will receive a cooperation fee of 200,000 yen when they respond to a request to shorten business hours.

 

I hope this will reduce the number of infected people. ..

 

Even so, I think that the cooperation fee of “200,000 yen” is too small for a shop that is doing its best at high rent in Tokyo”.

I want the governmet to make it a little more like "everyone want to cooperate".

Then I'm sure everyone will comply with the request. ..

 

In connection with this, Governor Koike today said,

"It is not good that the countermeasure period becomes long. I'm asking until the end of August"...

No... let's do it until COVID-19 is controled...

(*NHK NEWS WEB)

 

 

Comparing the number of infected people across the country.

コロナ 10万人当たりの感染者数 沖縄がトップ 次いで東京 福岡 | NHKニュース

In a week from July 27th to August 1st,

Comparing each region with the number of infected people per 100,000 population

▽Okinawa : 18.38 people / 100,000 population
▽Tokyo : 15.72 people / 100,000 population
▽Fukuoka : 13.83 people / 100,000 population
▽Osaka : 13.68 people / 100,000 population
▽Aichi : 12.80 people / 100,000 population
▽Miyazaki : 9.51 people / 100,000 population
Kumamoto : 8.98 people / 100,000 population

This means that the more people they have, the more the infection is spreading.

Due to the smaller population compared to cities such as Tokyo and Osaka, the number of infected people in Okinawa is remarkable...

It's also scary that Osaka, Fukuoka and Aichi are almost the same as Tokyo...

 

 

 

 This is the part that I posted in the total column of Tokyo few days before. ↓

A person in charge of the city analyzes that "one of the factors contributing to the increase is 4 consecutive holidays".

  →"I traveled with friends for 4 days during the last 4 holidays"

  →"I had a barbecue with five friends"

  →"We had a drinking party with 8 people"

 There were many infections among people who went out or hang out with their friends during the four consecutive holidays.

 

This is a statement from a person in charge of Tokyo who actually collects information on infected people on Saturday, August 1, when there were nearly 500 infected people.

 

"If you stretch your wings too much on holidays, you will get infected"

 

You can see that by looking at this...

It's the summer vacation season, and the rainy season is over and it's getting hotter. It's the season when you want to go out, but when you go out, be careful of infection control.

 

 And one more thing I can feel...

It seems that perhaps the test method or the number of tests has become easier to carry out, the infected person will be known within 6 days after the infected day.

So from now on, COVID-19 can be detected in less than a week after the infection. It means that.

I was a little surprised because it was said that it was 2 weeks ago.

 

The inspection system is also evolving.

 

 

From this topic today...

協力金「意味がない」と不満の声も…要請あった繁華街の飲食店で時短営業や休業始まる クラスター多発の愛知 - Yahoo!ニュース

Although it is not in Tokyo, it seems that the cooperation fee of 10,000 yen for requesting shortening of business hours is too small,

"There is no meaning in that amount",

one restaurant in Aichi prefecture will open as usual until 24:00. Apparently decided.

(A request to shorten the business hours is made at 10 pm)

 

 


In a way, that's right...

Many times companies and shops are already in a state of dying due to repeated declarations of emergencies, and they are about to forced to live or die, or to crush their own company,

but the government said "Please refrain from cooperation with 10,000 yen",

That's impossible. ..

 

 

I'd like the government of each prefecture and Japanese government to think a little more and take measures.

 

 

Next here...

東京都 新型コロナの感染状況を詳しく 陽性率は?感染経路は? | NHKニュース

Recently, statistical articles related to COVID-19 are continuing in the news.

 

Governor Koike often says, "The number of new infections announced daily every day is high because of the large number of tests."

 

Number of inspections per day
▽1007 cases in April
▽1150 cases in May
▽1802 cases in June
▽4166 cases in July

 

Positive rate (*% of people whose test result is "infected")

20% to 30% during April
1.0% on May 25 (Emergency declaration cancellation date)
▽ 3.0% on June 25
▽Up to 6.6% on July 31

 

The person in charge in Tokyo said,

 

"Because the inspection system has been set up, it is also a factor that the number of infected people is increasing because the person who is not a rich contact person or the person who does not have symptoms has been confirmed to be infected"

 

"However, the fact that the positive rate is not suppressed also indicates that the spread of infection is not suppressed, so caution is required."

 

 

Yes, it is natural that the number of infected people will increase as the number of tests increases, and the problem is that the problem is that the positive rate (the ratio of people who are tested and confirmed to be infected) also increases.

In the first place, we are aiming to control COVID-19, but the problem is that there are many infected people...

 

I would like Governor Koike and the government to understand the problem...

 

 

 

 

To change the subject again,

There is some good news!

I posted on this blog from few days before,

 

 

The anti-inflammatory drug "dexamethasone" has been additionally certified as a therapeutic drug for COVID-19!

国内2例目の新型コロナ治療薬認定 - Yahoo!ニュース

It is published by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare in the guide for corona treatment, and it can be used immediately without any examination or approval.

新型コロナ:抗炎症薬デキサメタゾン、国内2例目のコロナ治療薬に :日本経済新聞

I didn't find much information in these two articles, so I looked into it, but the article below is the easiest to understand.

デキサメタゾン、COVID-19重症例の死亡を減少:日経メディカル

As a result of Oxford University's examination, the mortality rate was remarkably reduced as compared with standard treatment.

41% → 27% (1/3 decrease) in patients who need ventilator

25% → 20% (1/5 reduction) in patients requiring oxygen inhalers

 

*It was not effective for mild patients who do not need a respiratory system.

 

Compared to "lemdecibir" that was certified in May, this time it seems to be a therapeutic drug that is effective for severely ill patients!

 

 

It is expected to save many lives worldwide as it is the first treatment shown to improve the survival rate of COVID-19 infections!


The remedy is coming out steadily.

 However, the number of infected people should not increase just because of this.

 

 And..

Next is special News...!

acertainfox512.hatenablog.com

 

 
It is news that the development of a vaccine that fundamentally solves this situation of COVID-19 infection is progressing steadily!!!

 

 

The clinical trial of the "COVID-19 vaccine", which is being developed and clinically conducted by Oxford University, which I mentioned several times in this blog, is now in the final stage!

 

Vaccines will be supplied in September as soon as possible!

 

Not next year! ? This year! ?

Another month and a half! !! !!

 

 

Really wonder why this isn't more news!

 

I will paste it again! (Lol)

 

acertainfox512.hatenablog.com

 

is that insistent...?

Sorry... lol

 


But it's such shocking and happy news, so if you have time, please read it!

 

And I stopped posting here for a while, but I was forgetting it for a while, so I am re-pasting it from yesterday ↓

 

acertainfox512.hatenablog.com

 

This is an article that I have summarized before,

but I would like to know how long time the materials such as paper, cloth, plastic, etc. need to eliminating the risk when coronavirus is attached, and how effective disinfection is. If you are interested, please take a look!

 

 


Today I just talked about this vaccine several times with my acquaintances and colleagues... but it's only one or two months left...!

 

It was today when I realized that I was really happy to think about the vaccine will be completed soon. (Lol)

 

 

 

 

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

 

(Number of people infected nationwide) 43,452

+ (Number of hospital discharges )  1,040

+ (Number of hospital discharges ) 28,687

=13,725 people ← being treated

 

(If it is exactly as announced)

Even if it exceeds 10,000 people, it is still increasing rapidly...

 

 

Today, I have carefully selected articles more than usual and summarized them in a simple way!

 

There are too many contents to convey, and I want as many people as possible to see the information,

so I often post the same summarized contents that already posted few days before every day,

but I am worried because the summary article itself is getting longer and longer. 

 

Because I think that people probably rarely read articles from past dates...

 

Well, I will continue to do my best, so let's share the information with everyone and survive through this difficult time together!

 

 

Please be very careful when you go out!
