While the domestic epidemic has achieved some success, the situation of the epidemic abroad is very serious, many people in Europe and the United States are opposed to wearing masks, so much so that the epidemic is spreading abroad in a big way.
Japan's epidemic is also more serious, Japan is an aging society, the elderly more, for this new crown epidemic Japan's pressure is also very big.

For example, there was a rumor that paper towels were imported from China, which could lead to a future shortage of paper towels in Japan, and then a large number of Japanese people went to supermarkets to frantically buy paper products, and at one point the shelves of the supermarkets were completely emptied of paper products. Later, the person in charge of the relevant departments came out to dispel the rumor, and the people knew it was a rumor before slowly reducing the panic. There is also a rumor circulating in Japan that natto can fight the new coronavirus, so a large number of people began to frantically buy natto again.
Besides some rumors about basic supplies, there is also a rumor in Japan that granite put in hot water and bathed in it can play a bactericidal role and can be used to fight the virus. This unscientific claim was believed by some Japanese people, who actually bought granite to fight the virus. The epidemic has changed many people's lives, but we should not believe any ridiculous rumors. We should learn from the epidemic, develop better personal hygiene habits, believe in science, and have a firm belief that the virus can be defeated.
