Japan reports 8,286 new coronavirus cases

Very boring, at least there’s something to talk about when it’s falling quickly or spiking sharply. Maybe 5000-10,000 is our future endemic mid-wave level.

Good Low Numbers as we can forget about this ghastly Covid business and rebuild society and the worlds economy.

Huge numbers still.

Japan leads the world in active cases, while its neighbors in Asia figured this thing out long ago.

I wonder case numbers would be like if people were still wearing masks like in the bad old days?? And the vaccine had not been invented?

Marking myself safe from irrational fears of living life without a mask.

Japan leads the world in active cases

It most certainly doesn't not.

I know you're looking at the Worldometer table,

Wrong.

Japan has never released any "active cases" number.

Wrong again.
