TOKYO, Oct 9 — Tokyo’s government said today that new daily infections of Covid-19 in the Japanese capital declined to 82, the lowest since Oct. 19 last year.
Cases have been on the decline since peaking at more than 5,000 a day in August in a wave driven by the highly infectious Delta variant. Tokyo and much of Japan last week exited a state of emergency that had lasted for almost six months. — Reuters
