TOKYO - Japan’s health ministry on Wednesday defended its cautious approach to coronavirus testing as domestic cases increased and South Korea prepared to test more than 200,000 members of a church at the heart of a surge in its outbreak.
The northern island of Hokkaido, the most affected area with 38 cases, reported another death, bringing Japan’s total fatalities to six including four from the cruise liner. The elderly, pregnant women or those with certain medical conditions that put them at risk should seek testing if they have such symptoms for two or more days, the guidelines say.
South Korea, besides testing members of the church at the center of a surge in cases, advises people to get tested if they have a fever or respiratory problems.
