Decided by University of Fukui
Headquarters for COVID-19 Crisis Control
At present, the number of confirmed cases has been maintaining a constant level or is still
increasing in areas where large spreads of infections occur such as Tokyo or Osaka, and thesituation continues to be unpredictable. Although the Warning in Fukui Prefecture was lifted
on September 25th, moving to/from areas where large spreads of infections occur should bedetermined carefully according to the Citizens’ Action Guidelines of Fukui prefecture.
While there has been some progress in loosening restrictions as an economic measure by
the government, such as the Go To Travel program, moving to/from areas where large spreads
of infections occur is still something to be very careful about, as indicated above. Especially ina university, it is worrisome that group infections may occur because many students move
to/from various areas.
Based on this, after November 12th, please keep in mind the points below for the time being
in order to minimize the risk of infection:
In addition, do not slander or discriminate against infected persons, those who have close
contact with infected persons, medical personnel, their families, or related parties.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the [Contact Information] at thebottom of this notice.
Since the status of COVID-19 is changing globally every day, our measures may change infuture. We will post messages from the President or other notices from the university inaddition to this policy as needed, so please check the university website or student portal everyday.
1. Basic Policy(1) Take infection control measures thoroughly, such as by maintaining space between
people by keeping 2 meters apart (or 1 meter at the very least) and by wearing a mask
(coughing etiquette) and hand washing on a regular basis.
(2) Take action keeping “new normal” in mind for preventing situations in which the threefollowing conditions overlap:① Closed spaces with bad ventilation② Crowded places with many people nearby③ Close-contact settings such as close-range conversations(3) Take action for preventing the 3Cs thoroughly including when you come on campus forface-to-face lectures or extracurricular activities.
2. Concrete Measures(1) Daily Precautions○Do not go in and out of places, regardless of whether they are inside or outside theuniversity, with a high infection risk because of crowds of people.
○When having meals with someone, using restaurants which have “Infection Prevention
Drastic Declaration” stickers is recommended. Parties where many people eat anddrink together are prohibited.
○Avoid close contact with large numbers of unspecified people, especially kids or theelderly, and do not take actions which make infection follow-up difficult.
○ Make every effort to prevent infectious diseases and stay healthy by practicing good
hand hygiene (hand sanitizer or hand washing) and wearing a mask (coughing
etiquette).
○ Avoid conversations at close range or in a loud voice and maintain space between
people by keeping 2 meters apart (or 1 meter at the very least). When necessary, wear
a mask or a face shield to prevent spitting/spraying as you speak. Since wearing a mask
may increase the risk of heatstroke, prevent it by taking the mask off when you are
outdoors and when nobody is around, drinking water often, and wearing cool clothes.
