Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe held a press conference at Tokyo’s official residence on the 14th and said he had decided to raise 39 of the 47 metropolitan prefectures across the country.
It is the first time an emergency has been issued in seven metropolitan areas such as Tokyo on the 7th of last month, after expanding across the country on the 16th of the same month.
The Japanese government has been restricting socio-economic activities, such as restricting school leaving, closing schools, and suspending businesses on the basis of an emergency under the Special Measures Law.
Prime Minister Abe said that the 4th, the last day of the ‘Golden Holidays’, the 6th of this month, which was originally declared as the deadline, will run until the end of this month, and the government intends to verify regional infections and medical supply status to promote early release.
Among the 13 “border prefectures” where the number of infected people was relatively high, it was decided to release the emergency, and 5 prefectures, including Ibaraki, Ishikawa, Gifu, Aichi, and Fukuoka, and 34 prefectures that were not included in the specific border area . .
“In 39 of these prefectures, the number of newly infected people has decreased to the level before the spread of infection began in 39 prefectures,” said Yasushi Nishimura, Minister of Economic Rehabilitation, who also serves as the Crown Countermeasures Award.
Although the number of infected people is declining among certain border areas, emergencies in eight prefectures, including Tokyo, Hokkaido, Saitama, Chiba, Kanagawa, Osaka, Kyoto, and Hyogo, which are assessed as pressured by the medical system, will remain for a time. .
Prime Minister Abe said he will listen to the expert group’s views again on 21 this year and consider whether to publish it.
The Japanese government expert group relies on this day’s emergency release ▲ The number of new people infected in the last week is less than 0.5 per 100,000 people ▲ The trend of decreasing the number of new infected in the week in Comparison with the number of new infected in the last week. Case presented.
In addition, it was decided to comprehensively consider the specific infection group (group), the outbreak situation in the hospital, the unknown infection rate of the route of infection, and the PCR (gene amplification) test system.
If the standard for the number of new infections in the last week (less than 0.5 per 100,000 population) is applied, the Tokyo area where about 14 million people live will have to drop to the level of 70 new infections per week to escape the emergency.
The Japanese government plans to divide and administer the entire country into three regions according to expert advice, according to the corona infection situation19, such as specific borders, spread of infection, and observation of infection.
13 specific areas have been designated as Tokyo, as of 16 last month.
In this area, measures are pursued to prevent the spread of the infection, such as going out and reducing contact by 80%.
In the region of increased infection, it was decided to implement completely new lifestyles, such as wearing a mask, and continue to request restrictions such as unnecessary movements to other regions or events that could cause a collective infection.
In the area where infection is observed, the strictest precautionary measures will apply to the strictest standards of behavioral restrictions, such as the possibility of holding small events.
Even after the emergency was lifted, the Japanese government decided to settle for a new lifestyle that avoids the so-called ‘three mils’, such as tightness, congestion and closeness, which are the conditions of the Corona 19 epidemic.
In the region where signs of infection proliferation resolve after the emergency is resolved, the policy will quickly be re-designated as an emergency target.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Abe urged the Japanese people to comment on the situation in Korea, saying that the spread of the infection can reappear at any time, even after the emergency is lifted during a press conference.
Abe said, “You may have seen the news of a group infection at a Korean nightclub” (Corona 19). The infection can spread immediately at the time of neglect. “
