Posted in: Tokyo reports 75 coronavirus infections; drops below 100 for 1st time in 7 days See in context

These are not the real numbers. I have a friend who is a doctor and he said they have no obligation to report the numbers of covid. Only if asked , they will report the number but otherwise many many many cases go unreported. He said they are contacted a few times a week, in which they divulge numbers but the officials can report any number they want.

Vinke I disagree. What about Stewart Copeland? He's way better than Neal Pert, and those other 2 for that matter. Their music is better too. Phil Collins? Pop music crap.

Marijuana is a seriously addictive, dangerous drug. 97% of marijuana users go on to use heroin, meth or cocaine. Japan should adapt the laws of malaysia-- death penalty.

There's no evidence that masks saves lives, show me the data. Just wait for someone to pass out from wearing a mask on a plane.

Judy. Tokyo. sure it's available, but it's not really easy to get to. All kinds of potatoes? you mean they ship russet potatoes from the USA? Chard and rhubarb is very hard to find here. Were did you find it?

Magnet, have you ever lived here? Sure Japanese supermarkets have good Japanese things but when you want a meat pie or a burrito or some chinese or thai or Korean (must I go on) you won't find it. No need to say which country has better supermarkets. Japan has good Japanese supermarkets , Australia has good Australian supermarkets. Personally, I miss beans , varieties of potatoes, ready made salads, cheap beef/chicken, mac and cheese, good kimchi and I could go on.

Why compare?

Peterbowie if by awesome food you mean microwaved takoyaki, frozen takitori and day old sashimi, then by all means tempt fate and eat. The food at most izakayas has a lot of be desired.
