There is no official whereabouts requirement similar to "travel with peace of mind" in Japan
As for restaurants, Iris said that local restaurants only place partitions on both sides of the seats, but there is no protection in front and above.
The Japanese government also did not require diners entering restaurants to record their whereabouts.
Therefore, locals only need to "walk the walk", measure their body temperature and spray alcohol disinfectant outside the door, and then they can enter the restaurant, or even "straight out".
Taking wearing a mask as an example, Iris said that the Japanese are not very aware of the crisis, and their mentality is different from that of the Hong Kong people.
For example, the masks worn by the locals are not of the medical level, and they cannot even protect against pollen. I doubt that some locals wear masks just to satisfy the herd mentality. (virus) 㗎.”
