Darvish Yu tweeted, “Why do Japanese think they are going to be OK? The people who have died in the world are the same people. If you look at what is happening in Italy or New York, isn’t that the last chance before getting to that same level? In the case of the coronavirus, there are so many people being infected and so many people dead even if the world is practicing self-restraint. If the situation is not controlled, it will be devastating.”
なぜ自分は、日本人は大丈夫と思ってしまうのか。
世界で亡くなっている人たちは同じ人間。
補償が、とかもわかる。
でもイタリアやニューヨークみたいになったらそんな次元じゃなくなる。
今はそのレベルに行ってしまう前の最後のチャンスなんじゃないか？— ダルビッシュ有(Yu Darvish) (@faridyu) April 4, 2020
ですが、コロナの場合はこれだけ世界で自粛していてもこれだけ感染者、死者が出ていますよね。
そんな状況なのに自粛しなかったら壊滅します。— ダルビッシュ有(Yu Darvish) (@faridyu) April 4, 2020
Darvish received many replies from people which include, many people can’t live without working. Another wrote, “Professor Yamanaka Shinya, who won a Nobel Prize” said that people in their 20s and 30s, there is a fatality rate of 0.2% and one in 500 people will die who are in their 20’s”.
Another wrote, “Some people think that Japan will beOK because the infection does not spread like other countries. Almost all the people in countries where it has spread, there is feeling of regret. Here in NYC as well. I haven’t been home for almost a month and all I can hear is the ambulance all day”.
One wrote, “In the Kanto region, the minority may feel confident that the infection will not spread in Japan. I don’t know about other areas. I don’t think anyone around Japan who lives in the Kanto region thinks Japan will be OK”.
In Japan, the country is promoting masks, promoting hand washing and advising people to stay away from the elderly. But unlike other countries, social distancing is not being promoted nor are mandatory shelter in place methods.
Also, unlike other countries which are focusing on doing tests to find out if people have COVID-19, Japan is not doing mass testing, believing to contain the spread of the coronavirus through finding clusters and tackling each cluster (individuals infected, so they don’t spread it to anyone else).
