The Japanese government will Monday end its nationwide state of emergency, initiated in early April in response to the coronavirus outbreak. That will trigger a phased reopening of the economy, nat…
The state of emergency was lifted in much of Japan on May 14. But Tokyo and four neighboring prefectures went into emergency earlier and are emerging from it later than the rest of the country. The reopening announcement on Monday comes a week earlier than had been scheduled.
Japan has suffered 16,367 confirmed cases of coronavirus and 768 deaths. Of these, more than 5,000 cases occurred in Tokyo, including 247 fatalities. Under the step-by-step re-opening plan museums, libraries and other cultural institutions will be urged to reopen if they maintain certain precautions. Restaurants will be allowed to stay open till later in the evening, and public events will be permitted so long as they number fewer than 50 people.
