For the first time in six months, the nation s capital recorded nearly 2,000 new COVID-19 cases in 24 hours. Throughout the pandemic, Japan has reportedly endured 853,000 COVID-19 cases and 15,100 COVID-19 related deaths. Tragically, most of these new cases and deaths have occurred within the last seven months.

With that said, he has instituted a state of emergency that is expected to last through August 22. Emergency measures include a ban on alcohol sales, shorter hours for restaurants and much more.
