Health Alert – U.S. Embassy Tokyo (April 3, 2020)
Home | News & Events | Health Alert – U.S. Embassy Tokyo (April 3, 2020)
Location: Japan
Date: April 3, 2020
Japan is experiencing a significant increase in COVID-19 cases. Over
the past 72 hours, more than 650 individuals across the country have
tested positive, an increase of approximately 200 cases per day. On
April 2, Japan saw the largest increase in cases since the outbreak of
the virus. A growing number of medical and political leaders across
the country are expressing concern that a surge in cases is imminent.
The U.S. Embassy Chargé d’Affaires Joe Young issued a video message
April 2 to U.S. citizens in Japan in light of the global spread of
COVID-19.
If U.S. citizens wish to return to the United States, they should make
arrangements to do so now. U.S. citizens who live in the United States
but are currently in Japan should arrange for immediate return to the
United States, unless they are prepared to remain abroad for an
indefinite period.
Capacity of Japan’s Health Care System
As compared to the number of positive cases and hospitalizations in
the United States and Europe, the number of reported COVID-19 cases in
Japan remains relatively low. The Japanese Government’s decision to
not test broadly makes it difficult to accurately assess the COVID-19
prevalence rate. Our diplomatic mission is in touch with the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and continues to
carefully monitor the capacity of Japan’s health care system in Tokyo
as well as other locations including Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka, Sapporo,
and Naha. While we have confidence in Japan’s health care system
today, we believe a significant increase in COVID-19 cases makes it
difficult to predict how the system will be functioning in the coming
weeks. In the event of a spike in cases, U.S. citizens with
pre-existing medical conditions may not be able to receive the medical
care they have grown accustomed to in Japan prior to the COVID-19
pandemic.
Border Control Measures
Japan is barring admission to travelers who have recently visited any
country that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has designated “Level 3”
for infectious disease concerns, which includes the United States.
Travelers from the United States are not permitted to enter Japan and
should not board flights. For details and exemptions, please refer to:
The Japan National Tourism Organization’s website.
An April 3, 2020 Ministry of Justice document that describes “
special exceptional circumstances” and specific rules that apply
to foreign nationals who are permanent residents of Japan or
immediate family members of Japanese citizens.
Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs website on strengthened border
control and visa restrictions put in place due to COVID-19.
Decrease in International Flights
As of April 3, only 11 percent of the pre-COVID-19 flight capacity
from Japan to the United States remains in operation. While we cannot
predict what will happen next, it is safe to assume that Japan’s entry
restrictions will further reduce flight availability in the near- and
medium-term. One of the sobering realities of the current crisis is
that a decrease in flights to the United States may mean getting back
to the U.S. for a family emergency in a timely manner could become
more difficult or even impossible.
U.S. citizens who are considering returning to the United States are
urged to work with their airlines to make travel arrangements while
limited commercial flights are still available. Due to a reduction in
customer demand, commercial aviation networks between the United
States and Japan continue to diminish. Travelers currently in Japan
seeking return fights to the United States should immediately consult
with their air carrier(s) regarding possible flight rescheduling
and/or cancellations.
At this time, Japanese authorities advise that passengers transiting
Tokyo’s Narita or Haneda airports without clearing immigration will
still be allowed to proceed to their onward destinations in other
countries. Passengers will not be permitted to transit between
airports or transfer from an international flight to a domestic
flight.
The Japan National Tourism Organization maintains up-to-date
information on screening and quarantine measures for travelers. It
also operates a 24/7 visitor hotline, available in English. To call
from Japan: 050-3816-2787; from overseas: +81-50-3816-2787.
The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare also has a 24/7
hotline at +81-3-3595-2176 with English-speaking operators, and has a
Q&A on the new measures.
Residents of Tokyo, should check the Tokyo Metropolitan Government
website for information in English on COVID-19.
All U.S. Mission Japan facilities remain open and staffed and U.S.
Mission Japan personnel are following United States and Japanese
government recommendations regarding social distancing and minimizing
non-essential travel.
Global Level 4 Health Advisory – Do Not Travel: The Department of
State has issued a Global Level 4 Health Advisory for COVID-19.
CDC Travel Notice for Japan: On March 21, U.S. Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a Level 3 Warning (Avoid
Nonessential Travel) for COVID-19 in Japan.

健康警报-美国驻东京大使馆（2020年4月3日）

地点：日本
日期：2020年4月3日
日本的COVID-19病例正急剧增加。 在过去的72个小时中，全国有650多名患者检
测出阳性，每天增加约200例。 自4月2日以来，日本的病例数增幅是该病毒爆发
以来最大的。 全国越来越多的医疗和政治领导人对案件数量激增表示关注。 鉴
于COVID-19在全球的传播，美国大使馆代办Joe Young于4月2日向在日本的美国
公民发布了视频消息 。
如果美国公民希望返回美国，则应立即作出安排。 居住在美国但目前在日本的
美国公民应安排立即返回美国，除非他们准备无限期地留在国外。
日本医疗体系的能力
与美国和欧洲的阳性病例数和住院数相比，日本报告的COVID-19病例数仍然相对
较低。 日本政府决定不进行广泛测试，因此很难准确评估COVID-19的患病率。
我们的外交使团与亚特兰大的美国疾病控制和预防中心保持联系，并继续认真监
测日本在东京以及大阪，名古屋，福冈，札幌和那霸等其他地区的医疗体系的能
力。 尽管我们对今天的日本医疗系统充满信心，但我们相信COVID-19病例的大
幅增加使得很难预测该系统在未来几周内将如何运行。 如果病例激增，患有原
有疾病的美国公民可能无法获得在COVID-19大流行之前在日本逐渐习惯的医疗服
务。
边境管制措施
日本禁止入境者最近访问过外交部指定的涉及传染病的任何国家（包括美国）的
“第3级”。 来自美国的旅客不得进入日本，也不应登机。 有关详细信息和豁免
，请参阅：
日本国家旅游组织的网站。
司法部 2020年4月3日的文件描述了“特殊例外情况”和适用于日本永久居民
或日本公民直系亲属的外国人的特定规则。
日本外务省网站介绍了由于COVID-19而加强的边境管制和签证限制 。
国际航班减少
截至4月3日，从日本到美国的COVID-19之前的飞行能力仅占11％。 尽管我们无
法预测接下来会发生什么，但可以肯定地说，日本的入境限制将在短期和中期进
一步降低航班的可用性。 当前危机的严峻现实之一是，飞往美国的航班减少可
能意味着及时返回美国进行家庭紧急情况可能变得更加困难，甚至无法实现。
敦促正在考虑返回美国的美国公民与航空公司合作安排旅行，同时仍可使用有限
的商业航班。 由于客户需求的减少，美国和日本之间的商业航空网络继续减少
。 目前在日本寻求往返战斗的旅客应立即与他们的航空承运人协商可能的航班
改期和/或取消事宜。
目前，日本当局建议通过东京成田机场或羽田机场的旅客，无需办理入境手续，
仍可继续前往其他国家。 不允许旅客在机场之间过境或从国际航班转为国内航
班。
日本国家旅游组织会保留有关旅客筛查和检疫措施的最新信息。 它还设有24/7
的访客热线，提供英语版本。 从日本致电：050-3816-2787； 来自海外：+
81-50-3816-2787。
日本厚生劳动省还设有24/7热线，电话为+ 81-3-3595-2176，并且会说英语，并
对新措施进行了问答 。
东京居民应在东京都政府网站上查看有关COVID-19的英文信息。
美国驻日本使团的所有设施仍保持开放，并配备了人员，美国驻日本使团的人员
仍在遵守美国和日本政府关于社会疏远和尽量减少不必要旅行的建议。
全球4级健康建议–请勿旅行：美国国务院已发布COVID-19的全球4级健康建议。
CDC日本旅行通告： 3月21日，美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）在日本发布了
COVID-19的3级警告（避免不必要的旅行） 。
