As the coronavirus spreads, what I feel near Tokyo in Japan.

Thank you for reading this page.

I am a Japanese woman in my 30s working while raising children.
I live in Kanagawa Prefecture,　an ordinance-designated city in the immediate vicinity of Tokyo.

The day before yesterday, I heard that a corona infection had occurred in a neighboring city. But I haven't heard of corona infections in my family or neighborhood.

The Corona influence I feel,
・Masks are not sold at any store.
・Neither toilet paper nor tissue paper is sold at the store.
（I heard from a friend that if we line up before opening the shop, we can get toilet paper and tissue paper arrived on that day.）
・Emergency food such as cup noodles and canned food is scarce.
・A mask is required for picking up kindergartens and nursery schools.
・The school is closed and a group of elementary school students is playing in the park
・There are few children in the city, they  may spend time in the house long time.
・Town hospitals, such as small pediatrics and otolaryngologists, are quiet.

I'm terrified of the increase in the number of cases of infection and death in Italy.
Data on infections and deaths in China and Japan will be manipulated. (It does not represent the actual state, I think there are many more originally) I do not know what is true and what is a lie.

When will the coronavirus converge?  l can't read.

I say terribly unscrupulous things, the Japanese economy has no bright future due to the declining birthrate and aging population (declining population).
So if the coronavirus does not become severe in young people, it may be one way to spread it once and rebuild the economy with those who have survived.
However, if the elderly in my family were actually affected by the coronavirus, I would feel terrible. What a small heat...

I'm worried about the impact of corona on our bodies, but the same or greater concern is about the economy.
When the economy falls, suicides increase. Recession kills people.

Although we know that the dead will not survive, on the other hand the economy recovers. But self-restraint event, no travel cancellation, no industry affected...

What I can do is to wash my hands, to eat well-balanced meals, and to maintain a healthy life without losing immunity. Everything is very small, but these are basic and important things.

If the Olympics will be postponed or canceled, the further adverse economic consequences. The Japanese economy will not really stand.

To tell the truth, I'm really desperate, but I'm trying to hide my despair and keep my hope.

If we compete, resources will  run out. If we yield, resources will surplus.
But It is also true that self-defense works for everyone.

I hope that the coronavirus vaccine will be developed quickly. There is very little I can do to stop the spread of the coronavirus. I feel itchy.

Thank you for reading.
