少女椿

I think considering everything going on, they should be flexible with laws and bills and i'm surprised they didn't have some sort of pandemic protocols. But in general, at least from my friends in Japan, Japanese people aren't taking this very seriously from what I hear.

@haizuru japanese aren't taking it seriously, that's right - this year, every, like, EVERY public park was crowded, because of cherry blossom picnics, I wanted to go to shinjuku gyoen because I thought no one will be there, but it ended up with me standing in the crowd of drunk people, and I decided to go home as soon as possible... public transport is also always full.

And now we are here, waiting for the Italy scenario...

Well I wish you safety and good health. I know it's a scary situation to be in when it seems that everyone else around you is being careless, and it's unfair that there isn't much you can do about it as an individual even to protect yourself. I'm sure since no one is being forced to close, a lot of businesses are probably not very merciful when employees want to stay home. I understand shutting things down risks the economic health but I feel like that can be fixed with time, losing lives cannot. So, please be as safe as you can and I hope things change there and they start taking it more seriously soon.
