The Japanese government has stepped up measures against coronaviruses at entry points, banning citizens from 14 more countries from entering Japan. The government has banned Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman, Djibouti, Peru, the Dominican Republic, Antigua and Barbuda, St. Christopher and Nevis and Barbados from non-Japanese. Citizens or people residing in these countries during the 14 days prior to arrival in Japan cannot come to Japan. The ban will take effect on Wednesday. The increase would bring the total number of countries and territories banned by Japan to 87. The government has already revoked visas for people from countries and regions to which the ban does not apply. It was initially said that the measure would be effective until the end of April, but now the government has decided that visas will be revoked until the end of May.
