Professor, Department of Infectious Diseases, Graduate School of Medicine, Kobe University Kentaro Iwata@georgebest1969)

Well, I understand the desire to believe that "COVID-19 is just a cold." Half of it comes from hope, half from fear. Facing reality and continuing to think logically requires courage, and many people stop thinking due to fear. This is a common phenomenon seen not only in Japan but all over the world.

Taka, a handwashing emergency physician, Master of Public Health program at Harvard School of Public Health(@mph_for_doctors)

This is absolutely true, and it's difficult to explain, but it boils down to this: "There are various ways to reduce the probability of contracting COVID-19, but ultimately whether or not you get infected is a matter of luck, so it doesn't mean that those who got infected were lax in their preventative measures." You shouldn't blame those who get infected. You wouldn't blame someone who is sick, would you? https://t.co/xVEVyiLUGt

Humanity is currently battling an unknown infectious disease. We must never forget that. Although it is an unknown virus, we have learned a great deal about it. We are still in the process of fighting it based on that information. That is why we must not let our guard down and must overcome this challenge cautiously.

If infection control measures aren't implemented logically while understanding the characteristics of the event, they'll be misguided and only increase the burden. We often see situations where too much effort is put into measures that are almost meaningless, while essential measures are neglected.https://t.co/eDiwctKPGd
