The Japanese government's preparations for the next virus surge include adding thousands more hospital beds to avoid a situation like last summer.
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida speaks at a meeting for the COVID-19 measures at the prime minister's office in Tokyo Friday, Nov. 12, 2021. Kishida’s government on Friday adopted a new roadmap of coronavirus measures to better prepare for a next upsurge of the infections, pledging to bolster hospital capacity, following a partial collapse of the healthcare systems in the summer that triggered massive criticisms.
The new roadmap of coronavirus measures, adopted Friday by a meeting of key Cabinet ministers, says the government will have hospitals allocate more beds for COVID-19 treatment by the end of November so that up to 37,000 patients, up from 28,000, can be admitted if infections increase considerably from an earlier wave in the summer.care systems partially collapsed, many patients were unable to find hospital beds and had to get supplemental oxygen and food delivered to their homes.
With nearly 75% of the population fully vaccinated and risks of developing serious cases reduced, more patients are likely to have slight symptoms that won't require hospitalization, and more attention should go to patients at home, experts say.
