The number of newly infected people in Tokyo has remained high …

 

 

It would be still OK if the temporary test office could handle infected people more than usual on Saturdays and Sundays even during the year-end and New Year holidays…, but

 

The flow of consecutive holidays across Saturdays and Sundays,

Saturday = as usual, high number of infected people

Sunday = less than Saturday as usual

Monday-several days = significantly decreased

 

However, since Sunday is almost the same as Saturday, I have a bad feeling…

It should decrease considerably on a normal Sunday …

 

 

Well, I will summarize

the breakdown of the number of new infections in Tokyo + α …!

 

 

 

And also today, I will summarize some prefectures that have a high number of infected people, not just in the Tokyo area.

 

 

 

 

Yesterday (January 2nd) was also the day when there was little news related to COVID-19 following New Year’s Day, but among them, the news of “request for emergency declaration from 4 regions in Kanto to the government” was running around.

 

 

Today, I would like to sort out the information that has been published so far!

 

 

First of all, in the afternoon of yesterday (January 2nd), Tokyo requests the government to issue a state of emergency to Tokyo! The news flowed!

(*Under Japanese law, the prefecture cannot issue a state of emergency on its own, but the Japanese Government must issue it.)

 

The number of newly infected people exceeded 1000 for the first time at the end of the year,

“On the verge of an infection explosion”

“It is necessary to thoroughly stop the flow of people right now”

In such situation, saying that, it seems that Governor Koike has moved.

 

(The infection has already exploded! (Angry)

　Everyone thinks …)

 

So, in the end, it seems that the government went to the 4 regions of the Tokyo metropolitan area, Chiba prefecture, Kanagawa prefecture, and Saitama prefecture, and met with the minister in charge of economic revitalization Nishimura for three hours and said, “Requested prompt consideration of the issuance of a state of emergency.”

 

 

What each person said after the visit …

 

 

Nishimura Minister for Economic Revitalization

◆ “We shared the recognition that the infection situation in the metropolitan area is a severe situation with a state of emergency in sight.“

 

◆ “We have to ask the opinions of experts to decide whether to make a declaration.”

 

◆ “We have to hold a subcommittee at an early timing.”

 

◆”Until then, I asked the governors to request a shortening of the restaurant’s business hours at 8:00 pm (sake is served at 7:00). We will also expand support for restaurants that respond to requests! “

 

◆”After that, make sure to follow the rules and prevention of workplaces, schools, events, etc.”

 

 

Governor of Tokyo Koike

◆ “I have asked the government to issue a state of emergency to Tokyo!”

 

◆ “The request to shorten business hours had some effect, but considering the medical care provision system and the increase in the number of positive people, I thought that I had to stop the flow of people right away!”

 

◆ “I hope this request to the government will be a message to the people of Tokyo and the people. I want you to remember the time of April and cooperate!”

 

◆”We accept the request from the government for the request to shorten business hours at 8 o’clock, but the problem is how much we actually protect and cooperate.“

 

 

Governor Ohno of Saitama Prefecture

◆”The sudden request to the government at the beginning of the year is unusual, but unfortunately COVID-19 cannot wait!”

 

 

Governor Morita of Chiba Prefecture

◆”It is important to share awareness and unite!”

◆ “It was meaningful to hear various stories!”

 

 

Governor Kuroiwa of Kanagawa Prefecture

◆”I was able to share a sense of crisis after more than 3 hours of discussion!”

◆”I’m glad that the government showed a direction to consider the state of emergency in the discussion!”

◆ “Request for shortening business hours At 8:00 pm, only about 20% of stores are　protected. I told the country that more cooperation money is needed!”

 

 

 

… Various news and information have been running around since noon yesterday, but for the time being, it was like this when I summarized the facts!

 

 

In other words

 

・In the end, the state of emergency was “in sight” … they had no intention of issuing it until now, and they have no intention of issuing an emergency declaration after the visit. ..

 

・Regarding to request for shortening business hours, Governor of Tokyo said

　・There was a certain effect

　・The problem is how many stores will protect

　(Is it effective? Or are there not many stores that follow it? Which one?)

　She says something inconsistent…

 

・As the governor of Kanagawa says, all the governors of some prefectures say that only about 20% of stores comply requests are being followed.

 

・Everyone doesn’t want to take responsibility by doing it themselves, so they want someone to take measures …

 

 

Some news sites have pointed out exactly about this move, so I will introduce it all together!

 

The two articles are so long (lol)

so in summary…

 

・Even if we declare a state of emergency, what we can do with the current law is about the announcement of stores name that do not follow

　(No penalties or coercion)

 

・The state of emergency is only a message.

　There will be many stores that will not protect even if it is announced.

　(Administrative executive)

 

・The government was concerned that despite of such situation of infection, Tokyo Metropolitan Government still only keep to request shorten business hours by 10 pm, but Governor Koike only said that the reality was harsh.

 

 

In short,

 

・Since the law (special measures law) has not been revised so far, the state of emergency seems to be meaningless.

　(Even if Emergency declaration is issued, there are many people in the city or the shop is open)

 

・(Although other governors) Governor Koike has not taken any measures until the number of newly infected people exceeds 1000, but when it becomes dangerous zone, she shifts blame onto the government.

(It was the same when GoTo Travel was stopped … she wouldn’t move herself and let the government stop it …)

 

・The government is frustrated when the governors try to shift responsibility to the government even though they haven’t done anything before.

 

・Prime Minister Suga recognizes that he is on the verge of leaving a name in history as the “worst prime minister of all time” who has failed in infectious disease countermeasures due to the economic downturn due to the sharp drop in approval ratings.

　(So ​​he started working hard such ass suspension of the GoTo Travel Campaign)

 

So, it seems that politicians are in a situation where they shift grand and grand blame onto each other.

 

Too bad …

 

 

However, the people are also,

if you look at the streets and department stores, there are a lot of people,

and there are actually young people who say the following things.

“COVID-19 is just a cold.”

“I’m cramped because I seem to be being monitored from other people.”

“Only those who say emergency declaration or self-restraint should stay at home!”

 

It was this year’s Hakone Ekiden that was easy to understand…

 

(*Yahoo!)

 

It is being held in Kanagawa, Tokyo, where an “emergency declaration” is being considered, but even in this situation, so many people are gathering …

 

And the media, the organizers, and the government just say “refrain from street support” and do not regulate (for people). ..

 

 

It feels like it’s closed in all directions…

 

 

However, the spread of the infection has already accelerated completely, so (probably not during January …) first amend the law and then issue a (forced) state of emergency. I feel that there is no choice but to forcibly stop the movement of people.

 

 

Even so, are there unexpectedly many optimistic people, both politicians and people in the city? Japan….

 

 

Even though the city is in such a recession, the stock price continues to hit highs and the government is being boosted by the fact that it looks like “the economy is good!”, But the expected vaccine arrives (end of February? ) Is unlikely to wait for the spread of infection …

 

 

 

 

This time I have put together a solid summary of “Requests for Declaration of Emergency to Governments in 4 Regions”!

I’m sorry if it’s boring … crying

 

The result of this time is only the disappointing result of “They just shared a sense of crisis!” And “Politicians shift grand and grand blame onto each other.” … However, if there is any information that is needed (even if it is boring article (cry)), I will put it together for sharing again!

 

 

Let’s share information firmly and manage to beat the COVID-19 this year!

And this article↓

How long time the materials such as paper, cloth, plastic, etc. need to eliminating the risk when coronavirus is attached, and how effective disinfection is.

If you are interested, please take a look!

And here’s a trial calculation of how many people in Japan are actually receiving medical treatment.

 

(If it is exactly as announced)

For those who are undergoing medical treatment nationwide are…

Are the infected people who have recently appeared infected from Christmas to the end of the year?

With an increase of more than 1000 people, the spread of the infection will not be stopped at all. ..

 

 

 

Oh, by the way, in England,

Regarding Pfizer’s new coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine, it is said that two vaccinations are originally required, and the second one is three weeks later, 

but it seems that the infection has spread so much, so the second vaccination will be given three months later, and the first vaccination will be given to as many people as possible!

 

It seems that there is no problem because it is said that the second vaccination is “3 to 12 weeks later”, but the effective rate is …

Effective rate with the first vaccine: Approximately 50%

Effective rate with the second vaccine: 95%

so it is unknown how effective it is…

 

 

It seems that both Pfizer and the British Medical Association are repulsing …

 

 

But the sense of crisis that they try to do so far is very important!

 

 

I wonder if “some government” or “some governor of Tokyo” (oh, I said ” of Tokyo”! lol) will learn from them……………..

 

 

 

 

Please be very careful when you go out!
