Today, new my column is released, so I take a day off.

Let's turn the world by "Number"(68) Extra:

Seven Questions to follow the "Corona Vaccine Refuser"

-----

Today, I would like to share with you an e-mail from Ms. M, who is in charge of editing my column, with her permission.

====== From here ======

Mr. Ebata.

Thank you for your confirmation. The article will be published at 11:30.

Yes, this column was long, but it was interesting.

After reading your co-worker's review, I added a note under the table of contents on the first page, "If you don't have time, just read the Shibata Report.

I read your second daughter's review and thought for a moment, in a strange way, that there must be a large number of people who do not have enough fear.

At one time, there was a lot of talk on the news about "fearing Corona correctly," but I think that Japanese people, for whom the number of deaths is quite small, probably cannot feel the reality of a situation in which "more and more people are dying by Corona".

It's not like Italy, where the dead are being trucked in by the truckload, or like New York, where cremation can't be done in time and a lot of bodies are stored in a huge warehouse next to the hospital. The number of infected people has increased rapidly, however, many young people may be wondering, "Is corona really that scary?

The other thing may be that it's hard to imagine how painful and frightening the COVID-19 can be.

In my opinion, I just read this "Appendix 1" and said, "Heee! I really, really don't want to get infected! I'm so scared....

If this had been a pandemic of an infectious disease with a high fatality rate like SARS or a horrible death rate like Ebola, where people bleed to death from holes in the ground, I wonder if people would have taken a completely different approach to refraining from going out and getting vaccinated.

I don't have any friends or acquaintances who are college students. However I would like to ask them, "To be frank, is Corona scary? , if possible,

It's a long story (no need to reply), but I hope you will let Dr. Shibata know how much I appreciate his help.

I'm looking forward to working with you two.
