Due to the dramatic downturn in the number of pandemic cases, Mr. Yamagiwa, Japan’s Government Minister in charge of COVID-19 commented that beginning in November (when the General Election is over) the government will implement measures to revitalize the COVID-19 inflicted (Japanese) economy by reducing border and travel restrictions, restrictions on restaurant business hours and so on.

Daishiro Yamagiwa, the minister in charge of economic revitalization, said in a Fuji TV program on the 17th, that all requests for restricting restaurant business hours, etc., which were implemented as measures (to protect the community) against the coronavirus, will be lifted if the number of new infections does not increase. He said, “we should be able to live (relatively) unrestricted by November at the earliest.”

The minister also said he would like to urgently prepare the easing of border measures for foreign visitors that require them to stay in home quarantine for 10 days, subject to those visitors providing vaccination certificates.
