COVID-19 in Japan news round-up
COVID-19 in Japan news round-up
Japan has begun a new chapter of the pandemic − albeit one fraught with fresh challenges − after national coronavirus countermeasures were lifted completely for the first time in nearly half a year.
The health ministry has asked the nation’s prefectures to beef up their health care systems and create a more resilient means of dealing with a projected sixth wave of infections this winter.
With the end of Japan’s COVID-19 state of emergency, the central government will lean on governors to prevent a rebound in coronavirus cases.
A delta-driven surge in COVID-19 cases is coming to a faster-than-expected end in Japan, but experts warn another wave of infections may be just around the corner.
