Same thing looks to be happening over there tbh - the prefectural/municipal governments are the ones taking it seriously, while the national government will probably have to be dragged along with them once things start getting ugly.

Some of my best friends over there are 60-years-old+ teachers, many with some underlying health issues to boot, it's pretty worrying.
