We would like to inform you that Kyoto Prefecture will end the Kyoto BA.5 Countermeasure Strengthening Declaration, which was made with the aim of preventing the spread of infection, mainly from the Omicron strain BA.5 lineage, on September 25th and will move to a new stage of ``With Corona.'' The national government has decided to move to a new stage of ``With Corona,'' which strengthens the balance between responding to COVID-19 and socio-economic activities, and a review of all notifications will start nationwide from September 26th.

・Focus on those at risk of developing severe symptoms, such as the elderly
・Provide thorough follow-up for those who are at low risk of developing severe symptoms, such as those recuperating at home
・Balancing prevention of infection spread and socio-economic activity
