( All of the above from 2020/08/07 21:08 worldometers) 

*( )= increse  from the day before

 

 

 

The number of new infections in Tokyo was 462,

which was almost the same as last week on the same day and Friday (463)...

 

 

I put it at the bottom of this summary,

 "COVID-19 Trend Calendar in Tokyo"

It is easy to understand if you look at this,

(Excluding consecutive holidays)

If you look at it on the same day of the previous week, the number of infected people has continued to be higher than that of the previous week, so I wonder if it should be seen as "I was relieved that there was not more than the previous week."

 

 

Well, I will summarize

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

 

 

Out of [462] new infections in Tokyo

 

・Today's newly infected people are men and women in their under10 to 80s

 

[304] people is in their 20s to 30s

  (about 66% of the total)

 
Infection at home [49] people

Infection at office [30] people

Infection at a dinner with friends and acquaintances [22] people

Infection within the facility [6] people

Infection from "other" rich contacts [38] people

 

・Outbreaks of performers and staff who practiced the theater last month

   *A case where 8 people who were once "negative" were "positive" when they were tested again

 

In "Others", infections of people who went to a trip, golf, or camping with multiple people [4] people

 

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

Number of hospitalized : 1475 ( -1)

Number of seriously ill :  23 ( +2)

Home medical treatment : 477 ( -15)

Hotel medical treatment : 415 ( +7

Adjusting for "hospitalization or hotel or home treatment" : 1046 ( +117)

People discharged from hospital or

those who have completed medical treatment at home:11,361 ( +354)

 *( )= increse  from the day before

 

Net increase in infected people in Tokyo

 = (Number of new infections)

   - (Number of people who completed medical treatment)

 = 462 - 354

 = +108

 

*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 [153] people

   (about 33% of the total)

Unknown infection route [309] people

    (about 67% of the total)

 

Quarantine at the airport

  Arriving at Narita/Haneda Airport

    → Men and women from the Philippines, Korea and China [8] people
    → Arrived on Augus 6
    → 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)

 

 

 

 

And information on measures against infectious diseases in Tokyo ↓

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...

 

 

 

Today's topic of "Expansion of the medical provision system"... it sounds difficult, but the point is that there were some news about measures to increase the number of beds for COVID-19 patients!

東京都 新型コロナ患者専用の2病院開設へ 府中市と渋谷区に | NHKニュース

First of all, two COVID-19 specialty hospitals will be opened.

 

①Utilizing the facilities of the "former metropolitan Fuchu Nursing Center" in Fuchu City, the facility will undergo renovation work within October. (About 100 beds)

 

②Utilizing the facilities of "Tokyo Hospital attached to Tokai University School of Medicine" in Shibuya Ward, the operation is scheduled to start in September.

(About 100 beds)

 

Approximately 200 beds are secured at the metropolitan hospital and public hospital.

 

In addition to this,they will open two accommodation medical facilities on August 13 and August 17 (about 900 rooms)!

 

 

It's good to have more beds for medical treatment!

Or rather, please reduce the number of people infected...

 

 

Today, I will pick up the other two articles that interest me.

 

 

“入院患者死亡率7.5%”解析結果 官房長官「研究分析を注視」| NHKニュース

According to this article, the mortality rate was 7.5% of the 2,600 patients who were hospitalized at domestic medical institutions due to COVID-19.

"Significantly lower than in the United Kingdom and the United States, where it exceeds 20%"

"It is necessary to balance infection control measures with socio-economic activities"

Although it is an article like that,

even so, one in ten or so will die when people are hospitalized, which is a really scary disease...

 

 

安倍首相「感染防止策と社会経済活動の段階的回復の両立必要」 | NHKニュース

Prime Minister Abe said,

"It is necessary to balance infection control measures with socio-economic activities."

“We received feedback on the establishment of an inspection system to restore the flow of people, facilitation of entry and exit between countries, and review of travel restriction levels.”

 

I think it is absolutely necessary to balance infection prevention and the economy,

but I think it is too early to think about lifting travel restrictions with overseas countries...

 

 

Let's change the subject.

I posted yesterday about monitoring conference in Tokyo.

This is the summary↓

 

・Rate of infected persons by age (one week until August 3)

  ・20s 43.2%

  ・30s 24.0%

  ・40s 12.6%

  ・50s   8.0%

 

・infection route (one week until August 4)

  ・Home      26.0%

  ・Restaurant with entertainment at night 19.3%

  ・Workplace      17.9%

  ・Meal dinner       13.8%

 

 ・Those with many infection routes by age group (one week until August 4)

  ・20s・30s Restaurant with entertainment at night 24.1%

  ・40s・50s Home      33.5%

  ・60s    Home      40.5%

  ・Over70s  Home      51.0%

 

・The highest number of infections was in Shinjuku Ward at 13.9%, but in other areas the infection spreads evenly.

 

・Although the number of hospitalizations such as middle-aged and elderly who are at risk of seriousness is increasing, beds for the seriously ill are still secured, and the situation is ”still in the second stage out of the four stages". 

 

In order to prevent overwhelming hospitals, patients who have a low risk of becoming seriously hospitalized by a doctor should be treated at the hotel or at home.

 

 

Considering the population distribution, it would be strange that the population with the smallest population in their 20s and the population with the next smallest population in their 30s would also have the smallest number of infections if all citizens acted with the same precautions.

However, considering the fact that people in their 20s account for more than 40% of the total number of infected people, their daily behavior will determine whether or not they will be infected. ..

 

 

Of course, I know most of the people in their 20s are careful about preventing infection...

 

 

 

 


And here's what I've posted every day, but it's positive information about therapeutic drugs and vaccines!

 

 Yesterday,

 

Finally, Japan has reached an agreement with AstraZeneca on negotiations to supply this vaccine! !! !!

新型コロナ ワクチン供給で「アストラゼネカ」と合意へ 厚労省 | 新型コロナウイルス | NHKニュース

英製薬“ワクチン”1億回分供給で合意へ(日本テレビ系(NNN)) - Yahoo!ニュース

 It is said that clinical trials will begin in Japan this month.

 

 I said that like above, but

 

According to today's report, in Japan, they will establish a system for supply from January to March next year...

 

No, it's too late...

 

AstraZeneca's Executive Officer Norio Tanaka, responsible for the development of the new corona vaccine in Japan, said

 

"Once clinical trials are over, supplies may start in the UK as early as next month. I want to start the supply to Japan as soon as possible so that it will not be delayed."

 

But he also said,

 

“Japanese data is likely to be very limited. We think that we should move forward considering the expected effect and virus threat, but we need to discuss with MHLW what kind of safety measures can be taken with limited data. ]

 

 

Apparently he says he has to think about the safety of different races.

 

 

… Like lemdecivir (also a therapeutic drug that was licensed in the U.S. of different races and was specially licensed as a therapeutic drug in Japan), the original plan may be "January to March", but I hope that the Japanese people will be able to get it faster.

 

 

Then it is a summary of the vaccine ↓

 

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!

 

 

 

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

 

(Number of people infected nationwide) 46,612

+ (Number of hospital discharges )  1,055

+ (Number of hospital discharges ) 30,812

=14,745 people ← being treated

 

(If it is exactly as announced)

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

 

 

Today, "The least summer vacation in Japan elementary and junior high school" was the news.

It is said that it is only 9 days from August 8 at elementary and junior high schools in 6 cities and towns in Gifu prefecture. .. .. !!

 全国で最も短い夏休み 岐阜県6市町の小中学校 | NHKニュース

"They can't hang out with their friends much because of COVID-19"

That's right, but...
even so, it's a pity that it's like only few days summer vacation because all of Japanese people think that the summer vacation is very long...

 

 

I hope it was a good memory because it was short...

 

 

 

Please be very careful when you go out!
