Toyama City New Corona Infectious People Successive Calls for Prevention of Infection with Unique Warning August 24, 19:20

In response to the situation in which people who have been infected with the new coronavirus at karaoke cafes in Toyama City are in sequence, Toyama City has issued its own warning on the 24th and once again calls on citizens to thoroughly implement infection control measures.

Mayor Masashi Mori of Toyama City held a temporary interview on the 24th, and said that the new coronavirus was being infected one after another at karaoke cafes in the city, and issued a city-specific warning on the 24th to prevent citizens from being infected. I called again for thoroughness.

The recent trend is that the number of cases where the infection route is unknown is increasing.

In addition to infections caused by singing, especially in karaoke cafes, we suspect that there is a suspicion that we may be infected through the equipment used for selecting songs, so we are demanding that stores thoroughly implement measures such as ventilation and disinfection.

Also, in order to maintain the medical system while the infection with the new coronavirus continues, it was clarified that Toyama City's own subsidy will be provided for this winter's influenza vaccination only this year.

The grant is eligible for the elderly people aged 65 and over, as well as people aged 60 and over who have a high risk of becoming seriously ill due to disorders such as heart and kidney disorders, and are all free of charge.
