Japan to completely lift coronavirus state of emergency

Description

Tokyo, May 25 (EFE/EPA).- The government of Japan decided on Monday to lift the state of emergency for COVID-19 in Tokyo and four other prefectures of the country, the only places where the measure implemented to curb the epidemic remained in force.The lifting of the alert was backed by the coronavirus advisory panel and will be formally approved by the government later Monday, the economic revitalization minister and head of the working group to coordinate Japan's fight against the virus, Yasutoshi Nishimura, said.The Japanese authorities made the decision after taking into account the number of infections and the situation of the health system in Tokyo, the three neighboring prefectures of Chiba, Kanagawa and Saitama and the northern Hokkaido, the only ones where the state of emergency declared more than a month ago to control the pandemic remained in effect.
