【マスク】3月13日からルールが変わります！

The central government decided Friday to drastically ease COVID-19 guidelines on mask-wearing on March 13, including for public transportation and schools, as Prime Minister Fumio Kishida seeks to relax public health measures for economic and social activities.

Under the new guidelines, passengers will only be recommended to wear face masks on trains and buses during rush hour or other occasions when public transport is especially congested, while students will not be requested to use them during school activities.
