The number of newly diagnosed new crown cases in Japan on the 3rd once again exceeded 12,000. As medical resources tend to be tight, the Japanese government requires that in principle hospitals only admit patients with severe illnesses.
According to statistics from the Japan Broadcasting Association TV station, as of 18:30 on the 3rd (17:30 Beijing time), there were 1,2017 newly confirmed cases in Japan on that day, and more than 10,000 new cases were confirmed in 5 days in the last week; a total of 956,986 confirmed cases ; There were 10 new deaths that day, with a total of 15,219 deaths.
3709 new cases were confirmed in Tokyo on the 3rd, while the average daily test sample size in Tokyo in the last 3 days was only about 9,928.
Due to the recent intensification of the epidemic, medical resources in Tokyo and other places have become increasingly tense. The Japanese government decided on the 2nd that, in principle, only severely ill patients and those with a higher risk of becoming severely ill can be hospitalized. Patients with moderate and mild symptoms are required to be isolated at home, and their condition deteriorates before they can be hospitalized.
Starting on August 2, Japan’s state of emergency has covered six places in Tokyo, Osaka Prefecture, Kanagawa Prefecture, Chiba Prefecture, Saitama Prefecture and Okinawa Prefecture. According to Japan’s Kyodo News on the 3rd, the number of home quarantine patients in these 6 places has reached about 30,000.
