One in four in Japan has higher stocks of face masks, disinfection alcohol and other products due to the spread of COVID-19, a survey of the Japan Meteorological Association showed.
The government has advised the public inventory of family parts needed to prevent new coronavirus infections from a imaginable herbal disaster. Experts also said it was not transparent if the shelters would have enough inventory of those products.
The agreement conducted its online survey of the time on the crisis garage on August 13 before the country’s crisis prevention day on Tuesday, with responses from women between the age of 20 and 40 who received valid responses of 300.
He found that 24. 7% of respondents had recently accumulated or more of their stock of parts used to prevent new coronavirus infections, many of which referred to masks, antiseptics and disinfectant wipes.
The proportion of respondents who reported knowing that at least 3 days of food and water materials for all family members should prepare for a crisis 51. 0%, 4. 2 percent more than the previous survey in 2018.
Those who reported sufficiently good or accumulated inventory to some extent accounted for 30. 3%, 9. 5 points more.
In addition, Tokyo-based pharmaceutical company Daiichi Sankyo Healthcare Co. conducted a survey mainly on crisis control in July.
Of the 795 men and women surveyed between the ages of 20 and 50, 53. 2% reported that error anxiety was higher since the spread of the virus.
The survey also found that more than a portion of respondents had purchased masks, toilet paper and food to increase their stock in the event of a disaster.
In June, the government updated its public emergency stock checklist, published on the Prime Minister’s website, by adding mask to the list of parts found in an emergency bag.
“It’s too late to begin arrangements when danger is imminent,” said Nobue Kunizaki, who runs a crisis control institution.
He advised the arrangements looking for a camp-like arrangement at home, avoiding the use of tap water and electrical energy for a while, to identify the parts to be stored.
