I.First case detected on Jan. 16
Soon after the outbreak was detected in our country, new crowns of infected people appeared all over the world. Japan detected its first infected case on Jan. 16, identified as a Chinese man who returned to Japan from visiting relatives in Wuhan.

II. Outbreak Begins to Spread, Confirmed Numbers Increase
The number of confirmed cases in Japan's outbreak initially showed a low rate of growth after the first new case of Crown was diagnosed in January. It took three full months for the number of confirmed cases to reach 10,000 in Japan. But as the number of people tested in Japan increased, and social controls were relaxed, the number reached 20,000 two and a half months later, and reached 30,000 in just under a month.
III. Abe sees few problems with second outbreak
Although the number of confirmed cases in Japan is still high, the country has more medical equipment and personnel to deal with the situation than it did in previous months. And most of the people diagnosed are young, with strong immune systems and mild symptoms. Compared to the elderly, they heal quickly. And the Tokyo government is also increasing the number of emergency beds, in the face of the epidemic, Shinzo Abe believes that the problem is not very big, after all, compared to the situation in the United States, Japan today's situation is really a child's play.
The number of people diagnosed with the outbreak in Japan is still more than 10,000 as of today, mainly in the Tokyo area. But as Abe prepares to step down as prime minister due to illness, there is still a lot of uncertainty about what will happen to Japan's politics and outbreak control. If you are interested, you can pay attention to the subsequent development of the situation.
