Japan's testing numbers are still ridiculously low. They've now designated a hotel in my area as a potential temporary hospital. Yay. First week of real shut down, but, frankly, it's not really shut down at all. I went to the supermarket on Saturday and the place was packed. Made me very nervous. Will make sure to go at a different time.
On the bright side, we're still not seeing huge numbers of patients. So, that's good. I guess. It really is quite frightening when I cannot actually be sure the government is deliberately suppressing information.
One of the reasons they are not testing extensively is because of a law in place where all positives MUST be hospitalized. So, they are deliberately slowing testing so they don't overload the hospitals.
