Yoshikiさんであっても、ダルビッシュさんであっても、必ずしも正しいとは限らないけどね。有名だから正しいってのは大間違い、海外に住んでるから正しいというのも大間違い。でも色々なソースを一つ以上の言語で読めることはいいこと。rt

Also, I really came to the realization after March 11, 2011 that to some people, numbers/data do not mean anything at all. They can't see them as neutral things.

I try to keep grounded by talking to my older relatives for a perspective that is not based on following Twitter and other social media. It is quite different. You can't just assume everyone shares the same POVs as people on social media.

(that link is on my page of links too - justmyjapan.com/tracking-covid… ) Tokyo and other prefectures are already shifting light/no symptom cases to hotels etc. That page doesn't count those as official hospital beds.

The "80% reduction" hasn't been achieved either though. It's about 40-60% at this point. I am not sure what if anything is going to change by extending the state of emergency nationally.
