Roughly one third of the planet expected to be unable to travel to Japan as part of expanded coronavirus countermeasures.
Japan’s NHK national news organization reports that the government will be moving to prohibit entry to Japan for travelers coming from anywhere in the United States, China, Korea, almost all of Europe, and certain parts of Southeast Asia.
The travel ban works both ways and will also prohibit travel from Japan to those countries.
The new travel restrictions come as part of raising the affected countries’ danger level, as per the ministry’s travel danger advisory system, from Level 2 to Level 3.
