On the 11th, the Ibaraki prefecture raised the countermeasures against the new corona virus infection from “Stage 2” to “Stage 3”. The number of new people infected that day was 20, a record. A group (group of infected people) was also confirmed in two restaurants in the “night city” of Tsuchiura city. However, we do not ask the citizens of the prefecture to refrain from going out or closing shops. Governor Kazuhiko Oikawa held an extraordinary press conference at the prefectural office and announced it. (Keiji Dekita)
It’s the first time in about two months since it was downgraded to stage 2 on September 8. The number of 20 newly infected people surpassed the 18 announced on April 1, the highest number in one day.
The number of newly infected people in the last week (5 to 11 days), which is a judgment index for the stage, has increased considerably to 2.5 times that of the previous week (October 29 to November 4). The number of positive people with unknown routes in Tokyo, which is another indicator, is also increasing significantly. On the other hand, it was considered to be stage 3 because the bed occupancy rate of seriously ill people and the number of infected people who were not close contacts were relatively low.
The prefecture recommends that the end of the year and New Year holidays be distributed and used to avoid overcrowding. When moving or staying in Tokyo, he called for continuous and rigorous measures against infectious diseases.
In addition, Governor Oikawa announced that a group of 10 people had performed at the “Pub HEAT” and “Pub HEAT2” restaurants at Sakuramachi 1, Tsuchiura City. Stores that took certain infection prevention measures were registered, and it was not a registered store of the prefectural system itself “Ibaraki Amabi-chan” that notifies when an infected person occurs.
Governor Oikawa said: “If the spread of the infection does not stop, we can ask you to refrain from going out or to apply for a leave of absence. We would like to ask the commercial operator to register Amabier-chan. We want the citizens of the prefecture use the registered store. ” I appealed again.
