Life in Fukuoka "English"

Here is information from Fukuoka City.
This is a request to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus.

On April 7th, the governor of Fukuoka announced a state of emergency in Fukuoka Prefecture to the citizens of the prefecture, for the period until May 6th, in order to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus.
More than ever, in order to avoid the three C's- Closed spaces with poor ventilation, Crowded places with many people and Close-contact with people such as close conversations, citizens have been asked to refrain from nonessential outings.

This is not a city lockdown so citizens are asked to please remain calm. Trains, buses and other forms of public transportation will continue running and the roads will remain open.
Fukuoka City also requests that families who use licensed day care centers or after school facilities, to please keep their children at home, if they are able to do so.

For more information and details, please check the Fukuoka Prefecture and Fukuoka City homepages for information and updates as they are announced.
