Coronavirus in China: 30-40 percent of employees in Japanese firms are Covid positive, huge drop in production

Big news has come to the fore amid the ever-increasing cases of coronavirus. The Japanese Embassy in Beijing has said that many employees of Japanese firms operating in China have been affected by the coronavirus and have been asked to work from home for the time being. At the same time, almost all the plants located in China are also operating with very few employees.

Up to 30-40 percent of employee corona positive

Yoshikawa Akinobu, head of the Japan Foreign Trade Organization office in Qingdao, China, said that the corona in the country started spreading rapidly around 16 December. He said that 30-40 percent of the employees in Japanese firms here have become corona positive. Production capacity has almost halved. However, the companies are trying to somehow maintain operations by keeping pace with the employees.

The Chinese government told the figures wrong

Let us tell you, health officials in Qingdao last Friday estimated 490,000 to 530,000 people to be infected per day, but the Chinese government has denied these figures reported by health officials. He told that only 21 people are infected in this province. At the same time, the Japanese Embassy in Beijing also said that information has been given by some Japanese firms that their employees are coming back to the offices as the possibility of infection in the city is at its peak at this time.
