Look under "国内の接種状況 (national situation on vaccination)" and select "日別接種回数 (daily vaccination figures)" to see how vaccination-numbers have crashed and burned since August. when all people who wish to be vaccinated." is basically just the government trying to put the blame back on the public while avoiding to commit to any vaccination-targets, this as they failed to meet any of their earlier targets.Īs for the October, November timeline, it's obviously just a disguised electoral promise (which in my book has limited chances to be fulfilled by then). We're talking about Tokyo, not a village out in the boonies, FFS! Just look at Shibuya's thousands of people lining up for a few hundreds shots (quantity-issue) and organization in obvious complete disarray. we can't get the vaccines to where they're needed) or, most likely, both.
we are running out of vaccines) or logistics issues (i.e. The real problem being that despite the population wanting to get vaccinated.they can't.

First the LDP spread coronavirus all over Japan with that insane Go To Travel campaign, then they put the Olympics ahead of the public health and now this. Half the people I know haven't even had their first shot yet. Probably because this re-opening "plan" is based on the research report released 2 days ago by Japan's National Institute of Infectious Diseases which shows that the vaccines have 95% efficacy against the virus.īut this silver-bullet study, on which these all re-opening policies are based, was done before Delta (and Lamda, and now Mu) had taken hold in Japan, and we all know that the 90+% efficacy claims are no longer valid.Ĭurrent studies from several other countries puts vaccine efficacy against the now universally dominant Delta at 50-60% (or lower), hence the rush for booster shots.īut just like how Japan ignored the foreign vaccine data done abroad last winter and therefore delayed vaccine approval for several extra months (which caused the country be in its current mess), they will certainly ignore the latest foreign research regarding Delta, and then be scratching their heads this January in the midsts of another "Go To" program as to why so many vaccinated people are still contracting the virus.įor info on the glowing 95% vaccine efficacy report from 2 days ago, see here:īut just like how Japan ignored the foreign vaccine data done abroad last winter and therefore delayed vaccine approval for several extra months (which caused the country be in its current mess), they will certainly ignore the latest foreign research regarding Delta, and then be scratching their heads this January in the midst of another "Go To" program as to why so many vaccinated people are still contracting the virus.Ĭriminally irresponsible.
