Will there be another confinement restriction in Japan?

So far, there is no news giving information about whether there will be another house confinement or work from home status in Japan. Thus, the best route of actions that we can take is to follow WHO requirements of keeping safe and keep wearing masks. It is best to try to do all we can to stay at home, like using online delivery service instead of eating out or using online payment service.
