This month, a man in his 80s in Tokyo was killed due to a sudden change in his physical condition the day after a new coronavirus test was determined to be "negative" I understood from the interview with The PCR test is a highly sensitive test method, but there are cases in which false positives and false negatives occur depending on the amount of virus, so experts say, “There is no change in physical condition once negative is determined. I also want them to be consciously watching around me, and if they feel something is wrong, do not hesitate to ask for transportation to the hospital. ”

[FONT="&amp]Number of beds and inpatient data for the new Corona[/FONT]



[FONT="&amp]Updated April 28, 2020
When NHK interviewed prefectures nationwide about the medical system for the new coronavirus, the number of hospitalized patients exceeded 80% of the number of beds prepared, and it was found in Hokkaido, Tokyo, and Ishikawa prefectures. It is 3 prefectures.
Already, in 27 prefectures, the situation where the hospital beds were tight due to the treatment of mildly ill patients at accommodation facilities, etc., has eased somewhat, but experts will continue to increase the number of beds and provide medical treatment at accommodation facilities. It is necessary to have a system that can fully confirm the health of the patient

Urgent symptoms for home carers to be aware of.

[FONT="&amp]Initially, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare had a policy of treating patients with mild illness and people with no symptoms at accommodation facilities and at home, but in response to the death of a man who was waiting at home in Saitama prefecture, We have changed the policy based on medical treatment at accommodation facilities.

However, because there are patients who are treated at home due to family circumstances and the condition may change suddenly, we have published a list that allows you to check for urgent symptoms yourself.

Among these, examples of symptoms include "clearly poor complexion" in expression and appearance, "purple in lips", and symptoms of breathlessness include "chest pain" and "lie sideways". There are 13 items in total, such as "I can't breathe without sitting." And "I breathe on my shoulder."

MHLW confirms these items twice a day by patients and their families, and if there is even one of the applicable items, the person at home is the contact point of the local government, and if it is an accommodation facility, the nurses etc. Would like to contact you soon.[/FONT]

Last week, the University hospital published a study of Covid tests done on patients admitted for non-Covid related illnesses and procedures. It found that around 6% of them tested positive for Covid-19.

It is a small sample and not "generalisable". But Professor Shibuya still describes it as "very shocking".

"We are definitely missing a lot of asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic cases," he says. "There is clearly widespread community transmission. I am very worried by this situation."

How many? He is not sure. But based on the Keio results he thinks it could be from 20 to 50 times the official figure. That would mean between 280 and 700 thousand people might be infected in Japan.

Without more testing it is impossible to know. But anecdotal evidence supports the idea that infections are far wider than reported.

Japan’s northern region of Hokkaido has been struck by another surge of coronavirus cases after easing its emergency restrictions. The island imposed a three week lockdown in a bid to quickly contain an outbreak, but 26 days after lifting it, authorities were forced to bring it back. Social distancing measures were relaxed when the number of daily cases fell to one or two, but this led to 135 new diagnoses being recorded in one week. Experts say a false sense of security caused by declining infections and pressure from local businesses caused authorities to act too soon. Hokkaido Medical Association chairman Dr. Kiyoshi Nagase told TIME: ‘Now I regret it, we should not have lifted the first state of emergency. It really may not be until next year that we can safely lift these lockdowns.’
