Well done Tokyo!

That's a huge drop on the previous days. You're flattening the curve quickly.

Why miss the chance to make 3.85 million dollars (413 million yen) during the pandemic while her fellow countrymen and women are back in Japan struggling with their loss of jobs, decreased salaries, changes in work and family conditions and routines not to mention the virus.

Is it true that they shrink after washing?

Similar story to some of you guys here in East Osaka too. Went to a home center and a major electrical store around 1pm today and found carparks and stores full with zero social distancing among shoppers. Quite a few old timers seem to have stopped wearing masks too because, you know, it's "atsui".

Anyway got what I wanted and got out quick while J families just meandered about touching merchandise and trying to placate their bored kids.

Tokyo's got about 6 months to rid its of Covid19 I reckon.

Wow. That would have made things interesting on day 6 of the Olympics.

Deaths in custody.

You conveniently forgot mention that in that total since 1991 there were 39 deaths in hospital due to car accidents while individuals were awaiting formal driving charges, 31 deaths due to natural causes, 28 suicides, 10 deaths due to justifiable homicide and 146 deaths in the Australian jails due to prisoner on prisoner violence.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, May 25: "We have been able to bring the outbreak under control in only one and a half months through Japan's unique approach. The effectiveness of the Japan model has been shown."

Work.

KFC.

Beer.

TV variety show.

Talked to some Japanese neighbors back from Spain via Singapore yesterday. No self isolation for them they're hitting the road today for three days in Nagano to take souvenirs to their relatives.

Is this oba shooto?

Over 28000 Covid19 tests conducted in the Australian state of Victoria yesterday. Over 300 new cases announced today.

Tokyo tests 4000 and has over 250 new cases.

Just saying.

"Taira then appears to toss a heart-shaped pillow virtually to a hostess in the next video, passing the Q&A baton"

Mecha kawaii!

BS

Tinder?...meh!

Celebrities always know best!

University names matter!

Good God.

Not enough testing

No

Sick mofo.

"Although still somewhat behind other developed nations, Japan has been making some headway in LGBT rights over the past five years"

Well at least we don't hear members of the LGBT community referred to as "Mr Lady" or "new half" as much anymore.

Fail.

All residents and permanent residents of Japan should be allowed entry and/or re-entry, period.

@Mirai Hayashi,

Dude, I was talking about the so called public outcry over Japan's testing limitations not Mr Shobushi's death.

"Shobushi's death caused a public outcry over Japan's testing limitations"

Could someone cite evldence of this as my Japanese family, friends and coworkers don't talk about Shobushi.

"...foreigners who are stranded in Japan because their home countries have closed the borders due to concerns over the spread of the coronavirus"

JT you need to fact check stories before posting them. Argentina and Holland have not closed their borders to their citizens. Even just a cursory check via Google would have confirmed this bv good on the locals for helping people out.

"Norihisa Hashimoto, professor emeritus of the Hachinohe Institute of Technology in Aomori Prefecture, who heads the General Research Laboratory of Noise Problem"

Wonder if the professor's lab is a noisy place to work?

"Japan has about 16,300 confirmed cases of the coronavirus, including around 750 deaths"

Do these numbers include or exclude the Diamond Princess cases?

Those pesky foreign correspondents!

Don't forget the Japan Olympic Committee originally went with a logo for Tokyo blatantly plagarized from a Belgian design.
