Reports from Japan are consistent and match what anyone here can see with their own eyes. People are not taking measures to avoid crowds, there are school groups and picnickers everywhere, restaurants and clubs are full. It's a colossal failure of leadership on a par with America

I wonder if it was to do with the Olympics - ie trying to reassure people it was ok to hold them this year. Now they've been postponed, we might see that change.

Japanese hospitals aren't filling up with ppl coughing their lungs out like in the west. Japanese healthcare workers aren't stressed out from the crush. Where's the sick at, if you think there's a conspiracy from the gov to hide the outbreak?
