Amongst the twenty-six new COVID-19 infections reported in Fukuoka Prefecture on April 16, three were found at a nursery in Miyako Town, Kitakyushu City. Since the facility has been the site of six COVID-19 infections, the prefecture suspects it might be a cluster and will test approximately ninety children that attend there. Meanwhile, the prefecture secured a second hotel facility to house coronavirus patients without symptoms or mild symptoms. Patients will be transferred to the Hakata Green Hotel No.2 near JR Hakata Station, beginning from April 20. Sources: NHK / TNC
