COVID-19: Asking for your cooperation in response to rapidly increasing the number of new infections

In Hokkaido, the number of new infections to COVID-19 has been increasing rapidly and some medical institutions have been overwhelmed already.

The Sapporo City asks your understanding and cooperation in order to prioritize limited medical resources to those who are at high risk of becoming more severe.

Please learn the attached picture and refer to it when you or your family member get fever and other symptoms.

In case of infections, please prepare antigen test kits (you can purchase in drug stores), antipyretics and food enough for at least 3 days in advance.

Also, to prevent further spread of infections, please keep the basic countermeasures (sanitizing hands, wearing a mask, regular ventilation, and vaccination) as well.
