        those masks don't do anything. the best strategy is to take a controlled approach to get the virus so that your body will build up a natural defense. use the lockdown to get the disease now when the consequences are less.

        It’s not enough. There are coronavirus cases in 44 of Japan’s 47 prefectures. This leaves out a huge chunk of the country and leaves places like my Niigata prefecture in the dark.

        Didn’t they recently receive huge amounts of something from China? Seems like I recall a news story on that...

        COVID19 outbreak has revealed the true self of governments around the world. Transparent government or not, competent government or not. Korea, US and most of European countries have a transparent government, so their COVID19 tallies are reliable. In contray, Japan don't conduct

        test on purpose & covers up truth, so reliability of its tally is zero. Actual infection rate and number of infected people of Japan are highest in the world. The reason of US' highest number of confirmed cases in the world is due to largest test in the world. Japan is contrary.

        I'm sure everyone will still be packed in trains and roaming around the usual places with no masks. BTW, there are no masks available anywhere!

        Right! No matter what the government says, many people still don't seem to care at all.
