Japan’s prime minster to declare state of emergency for Tokyo over coronavirus infections soranews24.com

Increasing rate of infections expected to prompt other major Japanese cities also being part of designated emergency areas.
On Sunday, 143 new cases of coronavirus infection were confirmed in Tokyo.
While Japan’s coronavirus death toll remains mercifully low, the increasing rate of infection has raised enough concern that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is expected to declare a state of emergency tomorrow morning.
Tokyo is a given, but the declaration is also expected to declare a state of emergency for other major cities in Japan.
