Shigeru Omi, Japan’s top COVID-19 adviser, said Thursday that the actual number of new cases is possibly higher than the reported figures since the country’s COVID-19 test capacity has been unable to meet the growing demand.

At an off-session meeting of the Diet, Omi restated the necessity to reduce the flow of people in Tokyo by half from the level in the first half of July.

“It is extremely important for the central and local governments to deal with the situation while keeping in mind that this is a disaster,” he said.

“There is room for improvement in the way of sending messages to the public” as the government has failed to win cooperation from the entire society, he added.
