(The following is a question and answer with comments from the governor and reporters)

The situation of the new coronavirus in Tokyo is now a turning point in the possibility of suppressing the infection or not. Three weeks after the state of emergency, the lights begin to appear. When it comes to “no more” here, the efforts made thus far are attributed to blisters. I’d like to confirm the infection countermeasures one more time and ask for your cooperation.
 
– Do you think the state of emergency should be extended?

Although the number of new positives is decreasing, the infection situation and the health care system remain dire. It is a crisis situation. The extension of the declaration depends on the infection situation in the future, but if the current situation continues, I believe that further strengthening of the measures may be an option. To prevent this from happening, I would like to share with you the awareness that this is a turning point and that we will do our best here.

-The amount of Tokyo bonds issued has increased significantly in the budget for the new fiscal year, but is there a financial problem?

So far, the Tokyo bonds have been suppressed as much as possible. As much as I have endured it, I can use it effectively in such an emergency.
