Japan reports 201,106 new coronavirus cases

And many, many here (including myself) have had Covid like symptoms and didn't bother to get tested, since means having to self-isolate, take a week off school/work.

They just get on with things (while wearing their masks of course).

Guessing at least 10x more than being reported.

since means having to self-isolate, take a week off school/work.

So @tora you mean that even though you are sick and unwilling to confirm to find out if its Covid, you are still going around spreading your illness?

As if, its only Covid if you "bother" to test?

I'm sure the families of today's 296 appreciate your willful ignorance.

I'm self isolating at home after my daughter caught the Rona.

After 3 days she is almost her old self again.

The rest of us in the house have no symptoms.

It seems that it's just like the flu and not as infectious as everyone keeps saying.

All of us are unvaxxed too, btw.

Seems that the vaxxed get hit harder when contradicting COVID than the unvaxxed but I could be wrong.

This year Covid19 total deaths in Japan is over twice of last two years.

Present Kishida LDP government use trillions yen and increases armament under the name of "for defending nation people" but does nothing about Covid19 deaths surge no matter how many citizen died despite worst daily deaths in whole world.

Kishida only pleased Japanese far-right who hate Korean and Chinese and who want to intimidate neighbouring countries by military force.

Yes, @dan. You are wrong. Period.

Still counting? lol

Sighhh…

am still unvaxxed. Been working in the office and using public transportation for commuting as usual. Today is my last day and will be off until Jan 4! Take care and Happy holidays!

A neverending story. It appears that Cool Japan is now Covid Japan with no end in sight. Will no one step forward with a "one size fits all" solution?

Wow, that is more weekly deaths per capita than US!
