カラオケ、バーへの立ち入り自粛を　新型コロナ、拡大防止で呼び掛け―東京都

　東京都の小池百合子知事は３０日夜、新型コロナウイルスの対策本部会議後に記者会見し、夜間営業のバーやキャバレーなどでの感染が疑われる事例が相次いでいるとして、「特に若者においてはカラオケやライブハウス、中高年にはバーやナイトクラブなど接待を伴う飲食店に行くことは当面は自粛してほしい」と都民に呼び掛けた。小池知事はまた、影響を受ける飲食店や中小企業、従業員への支援を国に要望するとともに、都独自の対策も検討する考えを示した。
　会見に同席した厚生労働省対策本部クラスター対策班によると、感染経路が不明な事例のうち、キャバレーやバーなどの関連が疑われるケースが３８例あった。最近２週間では、これらが感染経路不明の事例全体の約３割を占めるという。（2020/03/30-22:08）

Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike called on residents of the Japanese capital to refrain from going to karaoke rooms and nightclubs for the time being as part of efforts for containing the new coronavirus.
   Koike made the request at a press conference after the day's meeting of the metropolitan government's task force on the fight against the new coronavirus, following a series of suspected cases of infection at bars and cabarets that are operating at night.
   "For the time being, I want young people to refrain from going to karaoke rooms and live music clubs, and middle-aged and older people to avoid visiting bars and nightclubs that involve entertainment activities," Koike said.
   Koike said that she will request the central government to provide assistance to restaurants and small companies that will be affected by the requests, adding that the metropolitan government will consider its own support measures.
   Among people with the virus whose sources of infection have not been identified, 38 may have been infected at cabarets or bars, according to a health ministry official who joined the press conference. In the past two weeks, those cases accounted for some 30 pct of overall coronavirus cases for which infections routes remain a mystery, the official said.
