On the 29th, Japan’s Kyodo News reported that on the same day, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said that starting at 0:00 on the 30th, foreigners will be prohibited from entering the world. The reason is that the new strain of the Chinese Communist virus ((COVID-19)) “Omi Keron strain” is spreading rapidly in Europe and other places.

Earlier, on the 28th, the Japanese government targeted nine African countries, including South Africa, where the Omi Keron strain appeared, and prohibited the entry of new foreigners from these countries. Even if they re-enter or return to Japan, they need to be quarantined at a designated quarantine station for 10 days.

Kishida also pointed out that “(the new variant virus) also has a trend of global spread.” He also said that the policy is a temporary and rare measure before the epidemic information is clear; it will take two to three weeks to one month before the situation is fully understood.

The report revealed that Chief Cabinet Secretary Hiroichi Matsuno said at a press conference that no cases of Omi Kiron strain infection have been confirmed in Japan.

On the 8th of this month, Japan has just opened the entry of foreigners such as business travelers, international students, and technical intern trainees. However, under the new policy on the 29th, Japan completely stopped opening the entry of foreigners.
