Opinion on visiting friends after lifting COVID-19 restrictions in Japan 2020
According to a survey conducted in April 2020 in Japan, the majority of respondents would like to go on travels to visit friends and acquaintances, if restrictions related to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak were relaxed or lifted. While around a quarter of the Japanese respondents would like to go immediately, when restrictions are relaxed, 45 percent would wait until some time has passed.
Following the declaration of the state of emergency in several prefectures at the beginning of the month, the emergency order was extended to a nationwide level on April 16. With the government requesting citizens to practice self-restraint and remain at home, domestic travels were restricted and entry bans were issued for inbound travelers.
