As cases of COVID-19 continue to rise across the country, Hiroshima City has confirmed 13 new cases of COVID-19 since the beginning of July with a number of patients having come from visits to Tokyo, where cases are sharply rising.
Of these new cases, one confirmed on July 10 (Fri) was a municipal employee who attended an event in Tokyo. As such, effective as of July 11 (Sat), we have informed our municipal employees that they are to take the strictest care of their health together with keeping steadfast in carrying out basic infection countermeasures. I have also directed all municipal employees to remember that they deal with many of our citizens directly, and as such, they should remain keenly aware that they must be even more cautious than our citizens in the fight against COVID-19.
I would also like to ask our citizens to remain vigilant in carrying out the New Way of Life: practice social distancing, wear masks, frequently wash your hands, and avoid the 3Cs in your everyday life. In addition, I also ask the following:
