The number of Japanese infected with COVID-19 virus is on the rise. Where is the hardest hit area in Japan?

As of March 2nd, there were 962 confirmed cases in COVID-19, the most serious of which were Hokkaido and Osaka. Most people were infected because of the cruise ship Princess Diamond, and many people came into contact with the tourists on the cruise ship Princess Diamond without knowing it or indirectly, which led to infection.

Since the discovery of epidemic patients in Japan, Japan actually paid little attention to this new type of pneumonia at the beginning. Some time before the initial outbreak of pneumonia, Japan also held several large-scale collective activities. Recently, Japanese officials suggested not to hold large-scale collective activities, but it was only a suggestion, not a ban. So far, all schools in Japan are on holiday. In order to avoid infection caused by students gathering, some companies also let employees telecommute on holiday. All local amusement parks in Japan have been temporarily closed. They also reduced the cost of post-infection testing, but it was not completely free.

Just a few days ago, there was a shortage of materials in Japan. Many Japanese rushed into the supermarket and began to snap up things. Many Japanese supermarkets have empty shelves, but the first thing to be emptied is sanitary products, such as paper towels. It is said that it is because of the natural disasters that happened in Japan before. In the earthquake, the people affected by the disaster found that what they lacked most was not food and clothes, but toilets. Therefore, sanitary products are also in short supply. Not only that, but there are still many situations facing Japan, because many people have not been tested. On February 17, Japan's Ministry of Postpartum Labor said that only designated hospitals were qualified to diagnose new pneumonia, but the list of designated hospitals was not published at all, and the public did not know. Only those who have symptoms within two weeks or have a fever over 37 degrees 5 or respiratory symptoms are eligible for the test, and there are accounting tests in line. This has led to the fact that the current data in Japan does not represent the current epidemic situation in Japan.

There is also a fatal weakness. Japan can't be isolated as a whole community as China, mainly because of its aging. In many families, only the elderly live. Once isolated, who will take care of these old people? At the same time, Japan is the country with the most serious epidemic outside China, and the epidemic situation in Japan is not optimistic.
