Novel Coronavirus Infection

Prevention of the Resurgence of Infection(Excerpt)

2021.11.05

 

○  Although the fifth Covid-19 wave in Japan is waning at present, new cases continue to appear sometimes reaching more than 10 persons a day.

 

○  Of those infected during the past week (those eligible for vaccination), half of those in their 30s or younger are unvaccinated and more than half of those in their 40s and older are breakthrough cases (fully vaccinated persons got Covid-19).

 

○  Also in this past week, there has been no serious cases of Covid-19.  This clearly indicates that the vaccine is effective against severe disease.

 

○  On the other hand, it also indicates that it is important to continue taking preventive measures even after vaccination.

 

○  Including those who have been fully vaccinated, please continue to take basic precautions such as wearing a mask, washing hands and fingers with a sanitizer, avoid closed spaces, crowded places, and closed contact settings, taking good care of one's health, keeping the room well ventilated, etc.

 

○  In particular, customers and proprietors at drinking/eating establishments should cooperate in following preventive measures such as wearing a mask when having a meal together.
