TUAT Measures in Response to a New ��Quasi-Emergency�� State for COVID-19

?The Japanese government has decided to apply new quasi-emergency measures to Tokyo Metropolis (23 special wards, Fuchu city and some other cities in Tokyo), etc. in response to COVID-19 from April 12 to May 11. The infection spread is still ongoing and it will take several months before vaccines become available for most residents of Japan. Since April, we have been holding face-to-face lectures as much as possible while incorporating online lectures in appropriate situations at TUAT to prevent infection spread and ensure students�� learning opportunities, with reference to the following: "中国竞彩网��Ⱦ֢���ߤλ����Č��I��ᘤΉ���ȤˤĤ��ƣ���֪�� (Regarding changes, etc. in the basic measures in response to COVID-19 (announcement))" issued by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan on April 12 and the "����ѧ�ˤ������Ⱦ֢��ֹ���ߤΏصפˤĤ��ƤΤ�� (Request to take thorough measures to prevent Infection spread at universities)" issued by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government on the same day. To create an environment where lectures and research - the top priority of universities - can be conducted, we ask all students to continue to cooperate in preventing the virus spread by raising awareness on ��protecting yourself from infection and preventing infection transmission to others��. There are high risks for virus transmission even in areas not placed under the quasi-emergency state, so please cooperate in preventing the virus spread even if you reside outside the applicable areas.

• At each campus, infection prevention measures are taken and we are working to create a safe environment for study and research, where the students and researchers can pursue their study and research without much concern about the infection transmission, etc. Please cooperate in wearing masks, cleaning your hands and disinfecting your desks with alcohol, etc.
• As we will be frequently posting up-to-date information on how the lectures or events, etc. will be held at TUAT, please check the Google Classroom, Web Bulletin Board for students and TUAT website, etc.
• Laboratory activities can be carried out after thorough infection prevention measures are taken. However, please ensure to follow the policies of the Faculty/Graduate School you belong to.
