Japanese government criticised by SoftBank founder for its response towards COVID-19
SoftBank Group Corp. founder has criticised the Japanese government because of their response towards coronavirus pandemic. He said that Japanese government is not doing much to reach its goals for social distancing.
Masayoshi Son, founder of SoftBank Group Corp. said on Twitter the situation will be prolonged because the government’s emergency declaration was incomplete. Moreover, testing and quarantine measures were being implemented too slowly. The infected who have yet to show symptoms continue to commute on trains and buses, and the virus is spreading to families, he said.
Earlier this month, Son also criticized the government is not doing enough to reach its goals of curtailing social interactions by 70% or 80%.
With the increase of cases in Kapan, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe extended the areas for a state of emergency to the entire nation this week. Despite the increase, Japan still has the fewest confirmed infections of any Group of Seven leading democracy.
