We move now to the coronavirus situation in Japan. Experts here are offering new advice on face masks.
They say there may be more situations where people do not need to wear them.
Health ministry experts say people don't necessarily need to wear masks outdoors as long as they and people around them are not talking much.
They say that applies even when people can't social distance.
