The number of new infections in Tokyo has gradually increased...

 

 

Since the number of new infections this week is gradual, I hope this week will end with a small number...

 

The things to watch out for are Thursday, Friday and Saturday from tomorrow.

 

 

Well, I will summarize

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

 

 

Out of [222] new infections in Tokyo

 

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

 

[135] people is in their 20s to 30s

  (about 61% of the total)

 
Infection at home [15] people

Infection at office [14] people

Infection at a dinner with friends and acquaintances [17] people

 

Participants of 30-person conference [1] person

  *Men in their 20s who attended the conference

  *In this conference, 1 person has already confirmed infection

 

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

Number of hospitalized : 1659 ( -51)

Number of seriously ill :  21 ( -1)

Home medical treatment : 626 ( +1)

Hotel medical treatment : 366 ( -51

Adjusting for "hospitalization or hotel or home treatment" : 961 ( +17)

People discharged from hospital or

those who have completed medical treatment at home:12,526 ( +306)

 *( )= increse  from the day before

 

Net increase in infected people in Tokyo

 = (Number of new infections)

   - (Number of people who completed medical treatment)

 = 222 - 306

 = -84

 

*Tokyo currently has 6 facilities for infected people

 (Capacity of 2400 people)

 

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

 → Aim to secure 2,800 beds.

* In addition, we will open two specialized hospitals from September to October, and plan to add another 200 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 [73] people

   (about 33% of the total)

Unknown infection route [149] people

    (about 67% of the total)

 

Quarantine at the airport

  Arriving at Narita/Haneda Airport

    → Men and women from China and the Philippines [5] people
    → 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"...

(*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...

 

 

 


The number of new infections is increasing today more than yesterda not only in Tokyo but also nationwide 

 

 

There was such news today.

ステッカー掲示のパブで集団感染か 東京 江戸川区 | NHKニュース

It seems that clusters have apparently occurred from the shop where the "Infection Prevention Thorough Declaration Sticker" was attached. ..

 

The store information is below.

Filipino Pub "Mayon 2" in Nishikasai, Edogawa-ku

It is said that 7 people have been infected by 11th.

 

 

Somehow I knew it, but the "Infection Prevention Thorough Declaration Sticker" doesn't mean anything at all. ..

 

 

However…,

Not only in Tokyo, but also in many prefectures, the Governor has pushed it quite strongly, but this "Infection Prevention Thorough Declaration Sticker" is recommended by the governor of that prefecture, so if they put it on the shop, we feel safe of entering.

 

 

And when I looked up this "Infection Prevention Thorough Declaration Sticker" some surprising facts came out!

 

 

Actually, this "infection prevention thorough declaration sticker" is not a method that a person in charge of the city or public health center visits and checks and issues it if infection countermeasures are perfect,

You can print the sticker by yourself by visiting the homepage, checking the infection countermeasure items, and entering them...!

感染防止徹底宣言ステッカー|東京都防災ホームページ

 

 

Isn't it a shock?!!

It really doesn't make sense...

 

 

The general citizens of each prefecture are doing their best to refrain from doing so,

so I'd like them to consider some proper measures. .. .. .. .. .. ..

 

 

The story changes,

Today I have 3 articles about changes in life related to COVID-19, so I will summarize it.

新型コロナで家庭の収入「減った」が24% NHK世論調査 | NHKニュース

When NHK called a home phone number/mobile phone number randomly generated by a computer and took a survey, the changes in income due to the influence of COVID-19 are as follows.

Increase  - 24%

No changes - 69%

Decrease  -  2%
…In the first place, those who have a home phone or those who receive a call from an unknown number on a mobile phone are people who have a fairly solid work,

so almost people said "no  change" by such questionnaire.

 

So what about the reality?

 

And in relation to it

若者の65%が学習機会減少 新型コロナ感染拡大で ILO発表 | NHKニュース

According to the ILO=International Labor Period survey on youth income, the changes of youth who are employed in jobs around the world are as follows.

Youth who lost their jobs completely ー 17%

Youth with reduced income   - 42%

And,

Young people who experienced "closed school"    - 73%

Young people with less learning opportunities     - 65%

Young people who answered that learning is likely to be delayed - 51%

 

Maybe Japan is the same, but young people are the most affected. .

 

However,

it is a difficult place because it is young in the data that the infection is spreading. .. ..

 

 

Further on the economy...

飛ぶように売れる豪華クルーザー ~コロナが映し出す格差 | NHKニュース

Although it is not in Japan but in the United States, America is the country with the highest number of people infected with the new corona in the world, but it is said that luxury cruisers (selling 6 billion yen!?) are selling like hotcakes ...

 

Apparently, it is popular with wealthy people because it is a safe place (against COVID-19).

Certainly only a limited number of people can carry it, and then it will be as safe as at home.

 

However, the scale is different (laughs)

 

 

 

 

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

Unexpectedly, there are many people who do not know yet, so please let me know if there are people who do not know nearby! ↓

 

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!

 

 

 

 

Regarding to the contents above,

 

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.

 

 

 

 

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!

 

 

 ↑ At the bottom, "Time of disappearance of COVID-19 in each material", but it seems that there are many people who do not know it yet. ..

 

I was surprised when an acquaintance told me today that "Corona is okay in four or five hours"...

 

That's not the case!

 

Depending on the material, COVID-19 may continue to live for several days, so please be sure to obtain the correct information and be careful!

 

And tell the people around you...

 

 

 

 

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

 

(Number of people infected nationwide) 52,137

+ (Number of hospital discharges )  1,079

+ (Number of hospital discharges ) 35,547

=15,411 people ← being treated

 

(If it is exactly as announced)

There are less than 40 people, but it has decreased!

It has decreased for the second consecutive day!

I hope this continues...

 

 

 

The number of infected people has decreased throughout Tokyo today!

It's been decreasing for two consecutive days!

 

Net increase in infected people in Tokyo

 = (Number of new infections)

   - (Number of people who completed medical treatment)

 = 222 - 306

 = -84

 

It would be nice if it could be gradually reduced as it is!

 

However, what I'm worried about (I'll try to put it together when I have much time) is that the number of severely ill and fatal people nationwide has risen to five or more every day in the last few weeks since the spread of the infection...

 

It would be good if the administration people are aware of this and take appropriate measures.

 

 

Please be very careful when you go out!
