Eight prefectures in Japan remain in a state of emergency, and the government is targeting 0.5 or fewer new infections per 100,000 people in one week as one criteria for lifting the state of emergency.
Sounds pretty solid. Really wish we'd use a strategy like that here...

Not really plan, just have lower standard and assume greater risk in Japan than west. We also do not test actively either. Japanese do not see as big threat to life as Americans and Europeans have.
