Due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, in the Tokyo metropolitan area 1 metropolitan area and 3 prefectures where emergency declarations have been issued, there are cases where health centers are not able to sufficiently conduct "active epidemiological surveys" to investigate infection routes and close contacts. ..
This is because the work of the public health center becomes enormous and it is difficult to handle.
Many such cases have been seen in Tokyo, and Kanagawa Prefecture has begun operations to narrow down the survey target to places with a high risk of aggravation.
Chiba Prefecture is also considering whether similar efforts are possible, and the reduction of the survey is expanding.
We prioritize operations at the site. In reality, we have not been able to conduct all surveys."
A person in charge in Tokyo explains the current status of active epidemiological investigations by public health centers.
Until now, he has been focusing on the infection route and tracking of close contacts in order to find out unidentified infected persons, but he cannot afford to investigate all cases thoroughly, and there are cases where the investigation is limited to a part.
From the 9th, Kanagawa Prefecture will narrow down the survey target to medical institutions and facilities for the elderly.
The prefecture believes that the significance of active epidemiological investigations is diminishing for infected people who are thought to be community-acquired.
In principle, the prefecture does not investigate unless it is confirmed that the family living together is infected.
