Regarding measures against the new coronavirus(COVID-19), there are some opinions from overseas that Japan should be strict and the regulations should be strict. The reason why such claims have been made in Japan is probably due to the sense of crisis that the spread of infection cannot be prevented as it is.
Certainly overseas, strict regulations are being imposed on citizens under lockdowns and declarations of emergencies such as martial law, and there are quite a few cases in which these have been successful. But for that,
① Governments and local governments fully understand the movements of each citizen
② Behavior control by strong power (police and army (SDF in Japan))
Is essential.
In some countries, not only the range of action of an individual, but also who and when they were contacted. By doing so, the route of infection will be clarified, and it will be effective in preventing clusters.
In order to prevent unnecessary outings, it is mandatory to carry a certificate when you go out for a living, and those who do not have it will be returned to your home by police officers or soldiers.
When it comes to blockades in the city, each person must carry his or her identification (resident certification) at all times, which blocks public transportation and roads, but this requires the strength of the military.
If this is done, it would be safe to say that the infection prevention effect would be even higher in Japan.
However, it is quite possible that these precedents will be applied when other problems arise. As a politician, this must be a good move. It will also lead to a move to amend the constitution and add an emergency clause.
This is scary.
Terrifying to me than Corona.
Therefore, even if there is a risk, it is preferable that Japan's current regulation based on its request is aware of the risk, and I hope that this method will be successful in preventing infection.
