Tokyo governor Koike: It is time to sound caution over infections in the capital

Comments by Tokyo governor, Yuriko Koike

• Tokyo had 107 new infections today, many in young people
• We are at a stage where we need to caution against the spread of the virus
• Says people should refrain from going out to night entertainment areas

Not much else besides a hopeful warning message. Meanwhile, the Japanese government has come out to say that the conditions are not there to issue a state of emergency in Tokyo despite the rising number of cases over the past week.

For some context, the 107 new cases today is the highest in two months.
