Our Measures Against Novel Coronavirus Infection

At the moment, the novel coronavirus infection has been confirmed in many countries around the world, mainly in Wuhan City of Hubei Province, China, and infected patients has been confirmed in Japan as well. On January 31, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared "Public Health Emergency of International Concern, PHEIC". There are concerns that the number of infected people will continue to increase and infection will geographically expand. At this time, considering that the pathogenicity and propagation of the novel coronavirus remains still unknown, we would like to ask you to take action as described in the following sheets ((1) detailed description (2) corresponding flowchart) to minimize the risk of exposure.
