Japanese government issues another emergency declaration with thin results for a week

It has been one week since the emergency declaration was issued in Tokyo, Saitama, Chiba and Kanagawa, but the effect is thin and the number of infected people continues to increase. 14 days, there are 6608 infected people and 66 deaths nationwide. Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga stressed that “the situation will improve in a month’s time,” but the number of people who are seriously ill is the highest ever, at 920, and the situation of hospital beds is worsening, while the number of people going out is not decreasing much.

The Tokyo governor, Yuriko Koike, showed the same opinion as the tail in a press conference on the 15th.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government confirmed on the 15th that another 2001 people have been infected with the new crown.

Koike thanked the residents of Tokyo for their cooperation during the week when the new coronavirus infection expanded, but she noted: Unfortunately, the infection situation is still very serious.

Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga will deliver his policy address at the regular Diet meeting on the 18th, and some of the contents are now revealed on the 14th. On the countermeasures for the new crown epidemic, he will emphasize that “I am determined to be at the forefront of the fight against the epidemic, while gaining the cooperation of the people, and to work with the governors of prefectures to overcome the difficulties”. Kan will make it clear that he will “put the New Crown outbreak to rest as soon as possible. In the emergency declaration for the 11 prefectures, he will emphasize “getting out of the fourth stage (of the worst epidemic) as soon as possible” (the expansion of the outbreak).
