Looks like Japan is fucked now and there is absolutely no excuse for it. They started out as the country with the best prerequisites to keep cases low and even eradicate it and they completely fucked it.

Yeah unfortunately they opened back up businesses and everything else like the virus was completely destroyed.

Whats unfortunate is that testing in japan is unlikely to catch very many of these cases and they still found 1,500+ a day (on a weekend).

Japan has only tested ~6,500 people pr 1m population.
(in denmark that number is ~265,000, ei. we've tested like 41 times more pr population than japan has)

Its very likely that therse a high number of infected walking around in japan (more than other places), that they just dont know about, because testing is so low there.
