TOKYO, Japan – The prime minister of Japan has lifted a coronavirus state of emergency in Tokyo and the four other remaining areas in the country, ending the restrictions nationwide as businesses begin to reopen.Experts on a special government panel have approved a plan to remove the state of emergency from Tokyo and neighboring Kanagawa, Chiba and Saitama prefectures, and in Hokkaido to the north, which had more cases and remained under the emergency declaration after it was removed in most of Japan earlier this month.The state of emergency lasted for more than a month and a half.Economy Minister Yasutoshi Nishimura said lifting of the emergency does not mean the end of the pandemic. He said the goal is to minimize next possible recurrences of infections while balancing preventive measures and the economy.Prime Minister Shinzo Abe declared the state of emergency on April 7, first in parts of Japan including Tokyo, expanded it to the entire nation later in the month and extended it until the end of May. Unlike a European-style hard lockdown, Japan’s state of emergency is soft and largely a request for people to stay at home and for non-essential businesses to close or operate shorter hours, a strategy aiming at minimizing the economic damage.Tokyo and its three neighboring prefectures are to reopen schools, public facilities and businesses in phases in coming weeks while watching any signs of a resurgence of infections.Nishimura said recent data suggest that the infections have slowed enough, and the medical systems are under less pressure and that it’s time to gradually resume social and economic activity. Tokyo and Hokkaido, where more than a dozen new cases have been reported Sunday, still need to remain extra-cautious, he said.“We cannot completely eliminate the coronavirus to zero,” Nishimura said. “Even after the state of emergency is lifted, we must firmly take preventive measures based on our new lifestyles.”Japan has 16,580 confirmed cases and 830 deaths, according to the health ministry. 2044

The United States Postal Service (USPS) and their unions continue to raise an alarm about their dire financial situation. According to the USPS officials, they are losing around billion per month amid the COVID-19 pandemic. A recent release said the financial situation is “threatening their ability to operate.”The problemWhile package deliveries are up, business mailings are down, which is how USPS makes most of its money. "It is a dire situation, Mark Dimondstein, president of the American Postal Workers Union, said. "The post office does not run on any tax dollars; it runs on the revenue generated by postage and postal products."Dimonstein says the postal service could run out of money by fall. Bailout? USPS has asked Congress for a billion bailout. While a billion funding package has passed the House, it has so far not passed the US Senate. The American Postal Workers Union has launched a rare television advertisement asking Americans to call Congress. 993

This week, 120,000 people in northern California went without power. It was the latest round of precautionary outages by the state’s largest utility company. PG&E says the outages were necessary to prevent downed power lines from sparking more wildfires. Last month, more than 2.5 million Californians were in the dark due to preemptive blackouts.Now, state regulators are investigating whether the forced outages were warranted.“Some people in California in October were out for eleven days straight without electricity,” says Mark Toney Executive Director of TURN Utility Reform Network in California. “That is unheard of. Unprecedented.”Public utility companies are regulated state by state. There are no federal laws guaranteeing or giving residents the right to electricity and gas service. Generally, experts say in times of emergencies like hurricanes, earthquakes and wildfires, some utilities can pull the plug on services in the interest of public safety as was claimed in California.“In California, they’re only supposed to do it as a last resort,” says Toney. That’s not to say that customers don’t have any rights. In some colder places, it may be against the law for utilities to turn off electricity or gas if they are needed for heating between November 15th and March 15th even if the bills haven’t been paid. “People only have the rights that they fight for,” says Toney. “That’s how it’s always been.”Investigators in California are looking at whether PG&E properly balanced the need to provide reliable service with public safety.One thing consumer advocates recommend is getting familiar with the consumer utility bill of rights in your state and municipality. If service is shut-off improperly, they say to document financial losses and file claims against the utility companies or with the public utilities commission. 1861
