Original title: Japan's new crown vaccination rate exceeds 50%
More than half of the Japanese population has completed the whole process of new crown vaccination, Yasuhiro Nishimura, Minister of economic regeneration, said on the 12th.
Compared with other countries with the same degree of development, the vaccination speed of Xinguan vaccine in Japan is slower. Nishimura said when participating in a TV program of the Japan Broadcasting Association on the 12th that according to the current vaccination rate, "if it goes well, the vaccination rate will exceed 60% by the end of this month".
Xicun hopes that the vaccination rate can reach 80%, "if it can reach 75% to 80%, it can curb the risk to a great extent".
The Japanese government expects that all people who want to be vaccinated will be vaccinated by November, when the current epidemic prevention restrictions will be relaxed.
The Japanese government decided on the 9th to extend the epidemic emergency state in 19 prefectures such as Tokyo and Osaka until the 30th of this month. Kyodo news agency quoted the data of Japanese communication operator dukomo communication company on the 11th to report that more than 60% of the people flow at 95 monitoring points across the country increased compared with a week ago, indicating that the restrictive effect of emergency measures on personnel going out is gradually weakened.
Japan added 7213 new confirmed cases and 41 new deaths on the 12th, down from the previous day. (Liu Xiuling) [micro special draft of Xinhua News Agency]
