Well, I will summarize
the breakdown of the number of new infections in Tokyo + α …!
＜Changes in the number of infected people in Tokyo＞
(*The number below the number of infected people is a comparison of increases and decreases from the previous week)
(*東京新聞)
* The following are also no longer published due to the “Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance”.
・Number of close contacts
・Number of people with unknown infection route
・Number of people with travel history from overseas
・Number of specimens brought to Tokyo for testing
・Vaccination status of infected people ・Vaccination rate
・Announcement of the number of “special suspected disease patients”
(* “Special suspected disease patients” = Patients with close contact who have symptoms and who have been diagnosed with infection without testing at the discretion of a doctor)
→(* “Number of people recuperating at home,” “Adjusting hospitalization/accommodation, etc.,” and “Number of people who have completed medical treatment” are no longer announced due to Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance…)
→(* Due to the Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance, the increase and decrease in the number of infected people in Tokyo and the total number of people under treatment for infection are unknown…)
*(Increase/decrease in the number of infected people)
= (Number of newly infected people) – (Number of people who have completed medical treatment) – (Number of deaths)
* (Total number of people under treatment for infection)
= (Total number of infected people) – (Total number of people who have completed medical treatment) – (Total number of deaths)
Due to the Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance, the number of medical patients is no longer counted, making it impossible to calculate.
→ Due to “Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance”, “Total number of infected patients = condition of spread” is completely unknown…
(As of Dec 01 , 2022)
* There are currently “30” accommodation facilities for COVID-19 prepared by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government
(Capacity for a total of 8,134 beds)
(*Since space for staff and storage space for materials are also required, the number that can be accommodated is smaller than the number secured)
* Hospitals in Tokyo have secured 5,084 beds for COVID-19 patients.
(4,825 for mild cases + 259 for severe cases)
(*The information as of December 1st is the latest /2023.02.10)

*Since the number of new infections in Tokyo seems to be almost the number of the previous day,
(Because the deadline for the number of new infections on the day is from 9:00 am the day before to 9:00 am on the day)
* In addition, the number of infected people in each prefecture at the present time (19:00) seems to be like this! ↓
(*Since “Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance” (September 26th), the figures announced by each prefecture have changed to those announced by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare)
(*The number of infected people in airport quarantine is now added to the figures for the prefecture where the airport is located)
*Graph of the number of newly infected people in Japan as of yesterday
(*Since “Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance” (September 26th), the figures announced by each prefecture have changed to those announced by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare)
*In addition, it is completely unknown how many people are actually undergoing COVID-19 treatment nationwide, as the number of discharged patients is no longer announced due to Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance.
(Total number of people undergoing medical treatment nationwide) = (Total number of infected people nationwide) – (Total number of deaths nationwide) – (Total number of discharged people nationwide)

<Summary of today’s “Major News Related to COVID-19 in Japan”>
This year, it was decided that COVID-19 should be treated as a “normal cold”, and it seems that more and more people are taking off their masks, forcing them to return to their daily lives before COVID-19 crisis, but it seems that there are many events that will be held!
*The Japanese government has decided to leave it up to individuals to decide whether or not to wear a mask after March 13th.
*On May 8, the Japanese government will change the handling of COVID-19 under the Infectious Diseases Law from “category 2 = dangerous disease” to “category 5 = common cold”.
The “Sumidagawa Fireworks Festival”, which is known as a summer tradition in Tokyo, has been canceled for three years in a row because of COVID-19, but this July it will be held for the first time in four years!
About 20,000 fireworks will be launched from 19:00 to 20:30 on Saturday, July 29th!
There were quite a few people at fireworks festivals around Japan even last summer, so it looks like there will be even more this year!
And… there was also news like, “Hmm? Have you seen this article…?”
…?
Vaccine for Pfizer’s Omicron variant filed for approval??
Already approved, right??
When I thought about it…, when I looked closely, it seems that it is a “vaccine for the Omicron variant that can be given to people who have never been vaccinated for the first time”…!
It is true that until now, the vaccine for the Omicron variant was intended for people who had been vaccinated twice or more, but is it true that people who have never been vaccinated are now getting vaccinated…?(dry laugh)
With that in mind, this is what the city looks like today! ↓
(*Tokyo Scramble Crossing)
I hope the infection doesn’t spread…!
↓ In addition, there was such an article! ↓
(* There was no other news I would like to introduce today)
Please be careful when you go out!

*単位:人(その日の感染者数)
(*Unit: person (number of infected people on that day))
*日本政府は2023年5月08日で新型コロナの感染症法上の取り扱いを
「2類相当＝危険な病気」から「5類＝ただの風邪」に変更し、
新規感染者数も約5000医療機関からしか集計しないため、
5月8日で日々の新規感染者宇数発表はなくなる可能性が高いです。
*The Japanese government has decided to change the handling of COVID-19 under the Infectious Diseases Act from “category 2 = dangerous disease” to “category 5 = common cold” on May 08, 2023. Along with this, the number of new infections will only be counted from about 5,000 medical institutions, so it is highly likely that the daily number of new infections will no longer be announced on May 8.
