The infection explosion cannot be stopped! The Tokyo Metropolitan Government announced on the 9th that 2884 new cases of coronavirus infection have been reported. This is the highest number ever for Monday. Under such circumstances, it was revealed that the talent Makoto Nonomura (57), who announced that he was infected with the new coronavirus on the 31st of last month, had worsened his symptoms during home medical treatment and was hospitalized on the 5th of this month. He was found to have severe pneumonia and was shocked. As the number of infected people continues to rise in the entertainment world, strict attention is being paid to the lack of infection control measures at TV stations.

In the entertainment world, actress Mei Nagano, "Cream Stew" Shinya Ueda, "Nankai Candies" Shizu-chan, comedian Tomonori Jinnai, and Kabuki actor Sarunosuke Ichikawa have been infected one after another since late last month. Shizu-chan was infected in January this year and became her second infection.
On the 9th, Hashiyasume Atsuko of the 6-member girl band "BiSH" announced the infection. This is the third member. In addition, "HKT48" announced the infection of five members. Nonomura became more seriously ill. She announced her infection on the 31st of last month, and her symptoms worsened during her home medical treatment, and she was hospitalized on the 5th of this month.
His wife and talent Toshie Nonomura will appear on the information program "Viking MORE" (Fuji TV) on the 9th. About Nonomura, "When I examined (at the time of admission), my lungs were white and I had severe pneumonia. We didn't think it was so bad, so I thought it was okay," he said. He was surprised at the sudden change.
The day after hospitalization, the oxygen concentration in the blood dropped, and it became necessary to attach a mask-type oxygen inhaler and an electrocardiograph.
"When I heard the fever in the morning, it was settled down to 36 degrees, so I was a little relieved, but the lungs had to have an electrocardiogram, so the situation is not so good. I'm feeling. I can't move from my bed right now. I'm in a situation where I can't even use the toilet or bath, and I'm just sleeping. I just wait, hoping to recover. "
In Tokyo, it is not uncommon for the number of newly infected people to exceed 4000 since it recorded 4058 on the 31st of last month. On the 5th of this month, there were 5042 people, and there are days when the number exceeded 5000 people. The more popular people are, the more they go in and out of TV stations in Tokyo every day. If the number of infected people in Tokyo increases, it is natural that the number of celebrity infections will increase.
"The risk of getting infected with hot-selling children like Mr. Ueda and Mr. Jinnai is inevitably high. Mr. Nonomura also has a lot of regular programs such as" Viking MORE "and TBS's quiz show" Hitachi World Mysterious Discovery! " Ne "(Professional entertainment professional)
There are also voices saying that it is necessary to review the infection control measures of TV stations from the beginning only in such a situation.
"Even though the number of infected people is increasing, the infection control measures of TV stations are almost the same as they were a few months ago. In the studio recording, the performers are not wearing masks, only the acrylic version is attached, and they are in the studio. There may be staff and managers. There are some sites where ventilation is not possible on a regular basis. ”(Production staff)
It seems that not only variety shows but also drama production sites will be required to review infection control measures. On ABC Asahi Broadcasting Corporation in Osaka, nine drama performers being recorded were infected with the new corona, causing a large number of close contacts.
In addition, there are harsh voices on the Internet saying, "Because the talent is on TV without wearing a mask, the sense of crisis diminishes."
