Japan Sees Steep Decline in Coronavirus Cases; Deaths Remain Low

Good news in Japan with COVID cases steeply dropping and the Japanese have been able to do this without any strict lockdown measures:

 The number of new coronavirus cases in Japan’s capital city fell below 300 Tuesday for the first time since June.

Tokyo reported another 253 newly infected people, the lowest figure in the virus-wracked metropolitan area since 236 on June 21, according to public broadcaster NHK and metro data online. For six consecutive days, the number of new infections has registered below 1,000 as the fifth and most extreme wave of COVID-19 appears to have waned.

Two U.S. military bases in Japan reported seven new cases on Tuesday.

Like South Korea, Japan has been very good at keeping the COVID death rate low compared to other countries:

Japan on Monday reported 2,236 new coronavirus cases, and 23 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center. Japan has counted nearly 1.7 million individual cases and 17,427 deaths during the pandemic. 

More than half of its population, 53.23%, or 67.2 million, people are fully vaccinated, according to the Johns Hopkins center.

Japan has weathered the pandemic with a loss in fewer lives than other developed nations.

Argentina, a nation with a population 34% that of Japan’s, has suffered more than 5.2 million cases and 114,000 deaths, according to the World Health Organization.

LOL… look at Japan’s number of COVID tests and the positive rate. Japan’s medical system has collapsed, as COVID patients are told to stay home, where they get no help.

“Japan set to be scrubbed from EU safe travel list over COVID-19 rate
Germany has already added Japan to its list of ‘high-risk areas’ subject to tighter entry restrictions”

Sorry. If you believe the government or mass media numbers, I’d like to interest you in my new cryptocurrency.

If you get in on the ground floor, you can buy 20 SetnaffaCoin for only $2,500.00 each. Complete with a certificate of authenticity and a limited edition facsimile coin to show to your friends

Guaranteed to enhance your portfolio!

Please send cash only to the Red Roof Inn, Dallas, Texas, to be called for by Setnaffa.

You’d have to be crazy to pass up a deal like this!

SetnaffaCoins are a great investment, no doubt about it, but the ChickenHead Nickel is really what is taking the investment world by storm.

Even better, they are only $2000 each so it is 20% cheaper to get in on the ground floor.

If you still want SetnaffaCoins, the best way to buy them is to exchange your bulky gold or heavily inflating US dollars for ChickenHead Nickels while you still can and then use those to buy SetnaffaCoins.

CHN are also projected to go way up in value.

In fact, since I started writing this, they have gone up to $2010 in value. So act quickly.

And they say it is hard to get rich quick.

Of course, limited time offer, may be withdrawn without notice, all rights reserved, not valid in all 50 states, void where taxed or prohibited, etc…

But I see no problem buying CHN and exchanging thrm for SC on a 5:4 ratio.

Of course, that method would not enable the purchaser to get the certificate or replica coin.

Now, who wants to start today? We probably need to offer an additional 10 percent off for each dose of the COVID-19 vaccine you’ve received… so if you had 2, they would be $2,000 each, 3 jabs would be $1,850.00 each, and so on.

Happy Chuseok!

Good time to buy crypto since Evergrande is poised to potentially crash the world’s economy.

Don’t worry. A nice attack on Taiwan will refocus that attention.

I’m sure a non-obese population eating a healthy diet has a lot to do with the low death rate. Covid tends to be a non-event in people with few or no co-morbidities.
