The number of newly infected people in Japan surpassed 2,000 for the first time in a day, the highest since the coronavirus outbreak. Although the third epidemic beyond the first and second episodes has become a reality, the Japanese government is controversial as it plans to continue its campaign to support travel, which is seen as the main culprit in the reproliferation of the infection. Reports from Tokyo correspondent Lee Kyung-ah. Starting with 493 people in Tokyo, the highest number of infected people came out after the Corona 19 crisis in Japan. This is the first time that there are more than 2,000 new cases per day in Japan. Last summer, the infection was widely spread among people in their twenties and thirties, but now the proportion of middle-aged patients who are severe and prone to worsening symptoms is increasing. Hokkaido, which has the highest number of infected people per population, has taken its own emergency measures. The Japanese Medical Association diagnosed that the current spread has exceeded the level at the time of the April-August epidemic. He noted that the travel support campaign imposed by the Japanese government to save the economy despite the spread of the coronavirus has affected the spread nationwide. In Japan, the number of people visiting the fall leaves across the country is expected to increase significantly during the three-day holiday season that begins this weekend. As a precautionary measure, there are opinions that Tokyo and Hokkaido, where there are many infections, should be excluded from travel aid. However, the Japanese government made it clear that it plans to continue supporting. Before this, the search portal Google predicted that in the future, in Japan there would be an average of 2,000 infected people per day. The Japanese government’s countermeasures to prevent coronavirus and socio-economic activities are also expected to be reviewed amid a rapid spread that exceeds expectations.
