首都圏、まん延防止延長で調整　新型コロナ感染増加続けば―政府

　政府は、首都圏４都県に適用されている新型コロナウイルス対策の「まん延防止等重点措置」について、感染の増加傾向が続けば延長する方向で調整に入った。重点措置の期限は７月１１日。来週中に決定する。政府関係者が３０日、明らかにした。
　重点措置の対象は東京、埼玉、千葉、神奈川を含む１０都道府県。東京都の新規感染者数は１１日連続で前週の同じ曜日を上回っており、隣接する３県と合わせた首都圏一体として、飲食店の営業時間短縮、酒類提供制限などの対策継続が必要とみている。（2021/06/30-21:27）

The Japanese government is seen extending the novel coronavirus pre-emergency designation for the greater Tokyo area beyond the July 11 expiration if infections continue to spread, sources said Wednesday.
   The extension for Tokyo and the three neighboring prefectures of Saitama, Chiba and Kanagawa will be decided next week, according to the government sources.
   The government believes that the current restrictions on business hours for restaurants and bars and their sales of alcoholic drinks should be maintained in the greater Tokyo area.
   In Tokyo on Wednesday, the number of new coronavirus cases rose from a week before for the 11th straight day.
   Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga told a meeting of ministers on coronavirus measures the same day that the number of new infection cases is growing in Tokyo while remaining low in many other areas.
