This is being carried out by family volunteers (analysis updates are scheduled to be done once a week). In addition, it is expressed in an easy-to-understand manner with reference to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government’s “Analysis and general comments on the latest monitoring items.” The pandemic of the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) has been declared over by the WHO, and normal life is returning to normal in our country. We continue to provide information in the hope that it will be helpful for infection prevention measures in daily life. Thank you for your support. *After moving to Category 5, the number of reported patients per sentinel is used.
◆Analysis of infection status and medical care delivery system [as of Friday, March 29, 2024] -Infection status-
Level 2. Infection is decreasing, but caution is needed
[Reference: As of the previous Friday, March 22nd…Level 2. Infection is decreasing, but caution is required]
The number of patients reported per sentinel has decreased slightly to 5.95. The number of influenza patients has also decreased (8.02 per sentinel), and an influenza warning has been issued. Nationwide, the number of new coronavirus infections is decreasing slightly in Okayama.
As we will continue to experience a period of high movement of people, it is necessary to refrain from meeting people if you are feeling unwell, use masks appropriately according to the situation, and provide adequate ventilation. The free vaccination period will continue until the end of March, and from now on, vaccinations will be regular vaccinations for the elderly and voluntary vaccinations for others.
-Medical provision system-
Level 3. The system seems to be under strain.
[Reference: As of the previous Friday, March 22nd…Level 3. It seems that the system is becoming tighter.]
 Hospitalization to medical institutions continues. In some medical institutions, hospitalizations are flat or increasing. Early diagnosis and treatment of high-risk patients is necessary.

Nationwide, the number of new coronavirus infections is decreasing slightly in Okayama as well. We will continue to have a period of high movement of people, so it is important to refrain from meeting people if you are feeling unwell, use masks appropriately according to the situation, and provide adequate ventilation.
The free vaccination period will end at the end of March, and from now on, vaccinations will be regular vaccinations for the elderly and voluntary vaccinations for others.
