And so the Governor is considering implementing an extension of the prefecture\u2019s corona alert from April 8. In the prefecture, the percentage of newly infected persons in their 20s in the week to the 27th of last month increased from 15% to 19%. The prefectural government is calling for those who are eligible to be vaccinated to be vaccinated as soon as possible and to take basic measures to prevent the re-spread of infection, such as limiting the use of restaurants to two hours or less until the day after tomorrow. <\/span><b>Source:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20220405\/5010015382.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/fnn_fukuokaimage_showcase_2022_cl.jpeg?resize=1400%2C933&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Fukuoka Prefectural To Consider Extension of Corona Alert\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-145768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/fnn_fukuokaimage_showcase_2022_cl.jpeg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/fnn_fukuokaimage_showcase_2022_cl.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/fnn_fukuokaimage_showcase_2022_cl.jpeg?resize=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/fnn_fukuokaimage_showcase_2022_cl.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>Photograph provided by <a href=\"https:\/\/showcase.city.fukuoka.lg.jp\/en\/photo\/img1158.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fukuoka City<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Get Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu area news and events in English reliably.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sign up for our <\/span><b>free<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> weekly newsletter.
