The third ``Emergency Declaration for New Coronavirus Infection'' was issued on April 23 for four prefectures: Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Hyogo, and the initial period was April. It was scheduled from the 25th to May 11th.
Last spring, in the first state of emergency declaration, the government requested that a wide range of people be closed, partly because it was the first declaration without sufficient knowledge about the new coronavirus infection. In January of this year, in the second state of emergency declaration, a request was made to shorten business hours as a countermeasure focused on the food and beverage industry, which was considered to be the main source of infection. And in the third state of emergency declaration, the government decided to reinstate requests for leave to a wide range of people, and the content was so strong that it was called a "mini lockdown" ahead of Golden Week.
As a result, it seems that the declaration of a state of emergency has had a certain effect in suppressing the flow of people, but the reality is that it has not necessarily led to a decrease in the number of infected people. One of the reasons for this is the emergence of double mutants, "L452R" and "E484Q", which are said to be derived from India, in addition to the conventional British type "N501Y", as the mutation virus of the new coronavirus diversifies. increase.
The government held a new coronavirus infectious disease countermeasures headquarters on the 7th, and decided to extend the state of emergency declared in four prefectures, Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Hyogo, until May 31. . Furthermore, from the 12th, two prefectures, Aichi and Fukuoka, were added.
In addition, along with the extension of the state of emergency declaration, the "priority measures to prevent the spread of the virus" have been extended until May 31, and three prefectures, Hokkaido, Gifu, and Mie, have been added from the 9th. In addition, Miyagi Prefecture, where infections are on the decline, has been lifted without extending the deadline on the 11th.
The government says it will make a comprehensive judgment on whether the state of infection has fallen to "Stage 3" when it comes to lifting the declaration.
Due to the extension of the state of emergency declaration, Inagi City plans to hold a new coronavirus infectious disease countermeasures headquarters on the 11th to discuss the response as Inagi City. We will inform you separately about the matters that have been decided.
The infection situation of the new corona is changing with time, but taking basic infection prevention measures is also effective against mutated viruses, and we hope that citizens will continue to do so. Thank you for your cooperation.
Please see the chart below for reference.
Among the materials of the 56th Tokyo Novel Coronavirus Infectious Disease Control Headquarters Meeting held on May 7, this is the content of the emergency measures that the Tokyo Metropolitan Government will implement as an extension of the declaration of a state of emergency.
Restaurants that offer alcoholic beverages and karaoke will continue to be requested to close, and stores where customers bring in alcoholic beverages will also be subject to closure requests, and there is a strong demand to refrain from drinking in groups on the streets and in parks. See chart for details.
In addition, according to the government's "basic response policy", large commercial facilities have been subject to requests for closure, except for the daily necessities department, but this extension has been revised and business until 8:00 pm has been permitted. However, the Tokyo metropolitan government will continue to be subject to closure requests at its own discretion, except for the daily necessities department.

From the graph of the number of daily increases, it seems that the fourth wave has started to peak out, but I would like to keep an eye on future trends to see if the effects of the third state of emergency declaration are beginning to appear. . Also, from the weekly moving average graph of neighboring cities in the Tama area, you can see that there are few new infections in Inagi City among the Tama area.

The cumulative number of infected people in each municipality in Tokyo, the number of infected people per 10,000 people, and a comparison table.
The average number of infected people per 10,000 population is 109.2 in the special wards and 57.5 in the Tama area, indicating that the Tama area has a low number. Also, you can see that Inagi City is the 19th in the Tama area, which is the least.

We understand that the declaration of a state of emergency has forced all citizens to spend Golden Week at home, and the extension of the declaration is stressful, but we ask for your further understanding and cooperation. I will.
At present, vaccination is the most effective way to bring the novel coronavirus under control. On April 19th, the city started vaccinations for medical workers (approximately 2,450 people), who are the top priority target, and is currently continuing. And for the elderly (about 20,000 people) aged 65 and over, who are the first priority target, we will start accepting applications from April 26, and the group vaccination at the venue of Inagi Municipal Hospital will start from May 12 in the city. Individual vaccination at each clinic will start on May 18th.
In order to further expand the vaccination system, the city is doing its best in cooperation with the Inagi City Medical Association, Inagi City Hospital, and the Health Division of the Welfare Department of the city hall. is limited. Vaccines are scheduled to be abundantly supplied around the latter half of this month, and if the vaccinations proceed in sequence, they will surely reach everyone. We will continue to vaccinate all citizens one by one, so please wait for a while.
