Very strange happenings in Japan now.
We went from record high numbers to numbers as low as the beginning of the first wave in 2020. COVID-19 is pretty much cured here, at least temporarily. Despite all that, I must state that most people (99%) are still using masks, even outside.
Recent vaccination data only suggests that we passed France and UK numbers and certainly Germany, so we still have a ways to go to pass countries like Canada, Denmark, and Finland. I hope that we at least get to Spain levels of vaccination or even better, Portugal. Before I stated Japan didn't start 12+, but that was false, Japan started during the summer. Not sure about the elementary kids yet.
