◆◆◆ Japan ◆◆◆
(*National number of discharged patients has been discontinued due to Limitation of targets for notifiable disease surveillance.)
(*As a result, it became impossible to calculate the number of COVID-19 patients in Japan.)
(Cumulative) * The following is up to 10 worst prefectures.
*( )= increase from the day before

◆◆◆ World ◆◆◆
This is what the streets of Tokyo looked like today!↓
(Around 15:00 today, Shibuya Scramble Crossing, Tokyo)
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)
And also today, I will summarize some prefectures that have a high number of infected people, not just in the Tokyo area.
*** Saitama ***
・New infections are [280] people (*Max of up to yesterday=13991 *2022/08/05)
(Individual infection information)
・It seems that clusters have been confirmed in a total of [0] locations …
*** Kanagawa ***
・New infections are [408] people (*Max of up to yesterday=16551 *2022/07/27)
(Individual infection information)
・It seems that clusters have been confirmed in a total of [0] locations …
*** Chiba ***
・New infections are [270] people (*Max of up to yesterday=11776 *2022/07/28)
(Individual infection information)
・It seems that new clusters have been confirmed in a total of [0] locations …
* 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)
(*NHK NEWS WEB)
<Summary of today’s “Major News Related to COVID-19 in Japan”>
It’s been almost a month since wearing a mask became an individual freedom, but NHK made a good article about the current mask wearing situation, so I’d like to introduce it!
*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”.
It seems that a research group at the University of Tokyo and Hitotsubashi University has been conducting a weekly online questionnaire survey on the wearing status of masks since August 2022 last year, and the data for the first week of March, which is just before March 13, has been published!
According to it…
＜Results of Internet survey on mask wearing status＞
(*Data from the first week of March before the relaxation of wearing masks)
■ Percentage of respondents who answered that they “always wear a mask” and “mostly wear a mask”
66.5%＝In a quiet town
82.6%＝When shopping quietly at a department store
■ Percentage of people who answered “I think it’s okay to remove the mask”
67.3%＝In a quiet town
30.8%＝When shopping quietly at department stores
■ Percentage of respondents who answered that they thought they could remove the mask, but actually wore it
44.6%＝In a quiet town
26.4%＝When shopping quietly at department stores
■ Information used to decide whether to wear a mask (multiple answers)
50.8%＝Wearing conditions around
35.2%＝degree of medical pressure in the area where you live
26.7%＝health reasons other than COVID-19
26.0%＝Familiarity
…However, in reality, most of the “those who do not participate in such surveys” do not wear masks, so the actual rate of non-wearing masks may be a little higher.
By the way, this article also summarizes the situation regarding masks in the United States! As expected of NHK! 🙂
Well, the first thing that people who don’t wear masks say is, “because nobody wears a mask overseas,” but what is the actual situation overseas?
＜February survey results in the United States by the research company Ipsos＞
■公Do you wear a mask in public places?
12% = “I wear it all the time”
18% = “I wear it sometimes”
26% = “Sometimes I wear it”
44% = “I don’t wear at all”
↑ You can see that about half of the people in the United States do not wear masks at all.
By the way, this is what the streets of New York look like ↓
↑ Similar to the results of the survey, it seems that only about 10% of people on the street are wearing masks.
According to the article, many of the interviewees do not wear masks on the street, but they are careful to wear them on trains and inside facilities!
Also, even in New York, there seems to be a privately owned bookstore that continues to require customers to wear masks.
Shopkeeper
“Most customers have responded positively. I will continue to wear masks until my employees and myself are satisfied, while monitoring the infection situation in the world.”
As expected, it seems that this measure will continue until he is convinced by private management!
It seems that many of the visitors are small children and elderly people, so it seems that everyone is taken care of so that they can spend their time with peace of mind!
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!
