Information about the Novel Coronavirus

1. What to do if you think you have symptoms of Covid-19

If you have a fever, coughing, or other symptoms, please call or remotely contact your primary care physician in advance before seeing them for an examination. If your physician is unable to see you, have them direct you to a medical institution that can help.

If you do not have a primary care physician, please call Kobe City’s Novel Coronavirus Health Advice Hotline. They will direct you to a medical institution that can help.

In order to protect yourself from infection, as well as protect your loved ones from being infected by you, we ask that you abide by these 3 basic prevention measures.

1. In places where people gather, keep the windows open for ventilation (even if it is cold).
2. Wear a mask, and wash and disinfect your hands thoroughly (especially the fingertips).
3. If you have coughing or other cold-like symptoms, do not go out, and stay home from work (even if you do not have a fever).

There are still many cases of Covid-19, hospital bed capacity is running low, and the health care system is under great pressure.

In order to save as many lives as possible, we ask the citizens of Kobe to refrain from nonessential, non-urgent outings and travel, and to take action to prevent further infections.
