COVID-19 upside down humans in three months

It has been more than three months since a face mask has been needed. Personally, I have started to wear it at the beginning of this February. Yokohama citizens were keen and cautious since got the news about the Diamond Princess cruise ship, which was at Yokohama harbour then.     

My personal aspect was that Japan would have got the hardest hit by COVID-19 in those days except China. Somehow the spreading speed is the slowest in the world today. Although the confirmed cases and the fatalities are lower, the Japanese have been preparing against more damages. Our quarantine is still ongoing. It will be by the end of this month, the Japanese government said as if 4th May.

Meanwhile, COVID-19 have struck Italy. And in the same way, America becomes a hot spot. Now the UK is following the number of the death toll after the US.

Some people are wondering why the pace is slow in Japan?  the infection & death, both lower. As you may know, shaking hands, hug each other or walking in your shoes in your house, these things rarely happen in my country. It could have saved from the severe infection. Besides, Japanese does not hate wearing a face mask basically. We would rather like it, especially during the winter season.

I have ever got a medical test yet. Any strange symptom has been seen in my health condition so far. Where I went out since March is only nearby, a supermarket and a pharmacy. According to the US's news, despite people have no symptom, some of them are COVID-19 positive.  That's tricky! 

 About this September vaccination may begin. Oxford University predicted a few weeks ago.  Almost all humans may get the vaccine coming decades.

Many people talk about a new normal life. I am willing to see what seems to be. My expectation is that humans respect natural species more than before. Naturals upside down humans in 3 months. They hit hard us. We have to share kindly this earth with all other species together. Whatever falls on us, it's thrilling to feel the transition.

By the way, I made 7 face masks to sell. You need to wear it at least until the vaccination starts. Please visit my shop, if you like.
