Requests for evacuation actions in the event of a disaster based on measures against COVID-19 infection

　In evacuation sites and evacuation centers in the event of a typhoon or major earthquake, the three conditions of "closed, dense, and close" are likely to be met, and there is concern about the spread of COVID-19 infection.
　If you live in Tsuzuki Ward  , you should give top priority to protecting yourself from disasters and ask for your cooperation in efforts to prevent the evacuation sites and evacuation centers from becoming overcrowded.

　Evacuation shelters are places where people who cannot stay at home due to collapse of houses can live an evacuation period for a certain period of time. If people who are safe at home are evacuated to evacuation shelter, the evacuation centers become overcrowded, so those who are safe at home will continue to live at home.
　Please check your preparations for the earthquake and once again confirm the evacuation flow in the event of an earthquake.

　If you can secure your safety at home in the event of a disaster, try to evacuate at home to prevent the infection of the new coronavirus.
　In addition, please prepare stockpiles such as food and toilet packs in preparation for evacuation at home.
　If you are unable to ensure safety at home, please consider an evacuation destination in advance.
　In that case, consider not only evacuation centers in evacuation sites, which are opened by the Tsuzuki Ward   Office, but also evacuation to relatives and friends' homes or private facilities (hotels, etc.).
　When evacuating to an evacuation center in evacuation sites, please include masks, disinfectants, thermometers and other infectious diseases in the emergency exhibit (water, food, etc.) you bring.
