    Japan declares a month-long state of emergency to step up the fight against the coronavirus outbreak, but few were heeding the request as rush hour trains were still crowded and shops were opening as usual. http://apne.ws/9o4NbqD

        These places saying they have a zero percent death rate is as laughable as China saying less then 3,000 people died

        This is surprising to me for a country like #Japan, whose citizen pride themselves on honor/integrity/safety for one another. Tokyo, is the kind of city, that could be a repeat of New York if it doesn't obey the governments request to social distance! #COVID19
