Government Subcommittee Chairman Omi "Reducing contact is the most important measure now"

2021-04-16 21:55:00
Shigeru Omi, chairman of the government's basic coping policy subcommittee, said at the press conference, "This time, what I would like to emphasize most as an expert is the previous week, which is an important index in deciding when to issue priority measures. It's a comparison of the number of infected people this week. It's important to be very careful if the number of infected people has increased significantly compared to the previous week for more than two weeks. In Tokyo, the number of infected people is Some people may think that it is a slight increase, but it has been increasing significantly from the previous week for more than 6 weeks, and there is a possibility that it will expand rapidly like Kansai in the future. Also, in Fukuoka prefecture etc. This tendency has already been seen, and caution is required in the future. In order to effectively utilize the priority measures, it is necessary to monitor the infection status by region rather than averaging the entire prefecture. ". On top of that, regarding the measures that are required now, Chairman Omi said, "The most important thing is to reduce contact opportunities. Not only avoiding traffic to and from areas where infection is spreading, but also reducing contact opportunities within that area. However, it is also extremely important as a countermeasure against mutant strains. "
