Work in Tokyo under Quarantine, COVID-19; 15th week (on July 11, 2020)

2020-07-11 2020-07-13

In Tokyo, over 200 new patients have been confirmed for two days in a row. It's the highest number of patients ever since this Corona pandemic started. At the first peak, about 2,300 patients were hospitalized and 70% of them were over 40-years-old. Today, about 500 patients were hospitalized and 80% of them are under 40-years-old, the younger age. Which means, COVID-19 goes around mainly among the young generation who are asymptomatic and unlikely to have severe symptoms now. Additionally, asymptotic patients and mild cases are not ordered to be hospitalized now. They are allowed to be quarantined at their home or designated hotels. Therefore, the hospitals have room to accommodate more patients even now.

Re-declaration of the state of emergency probably will not be applied for a while due to these current circumstances, I think. I don't want to live that strict quarantine life again, but I'm just not sure about everything anymore because I don't know what is right.

Let me talk about my personal quarantine life this week. I have been working from home for 15 weeks now. I'm still struggling to make documents and joining video conferences in front of my computer all day. There is any disturbance at home, so I sometimes forget to take a break for several hours. Which makes my lower back hurts.

Brand new cushion, P!NTO (pinto)

I looked for the best cushion which can be affordable without worrying about budget. P!NTO (pinto), I found! Good thing about working from home is that I can use anything that I want to, without obtaining permission from my boss. So, I bought it right away!

This cushion supports and keeps my right sitting posture, in another word, it
doesn't allow me to sit not-proper way. This cushion supports and keeps my right sitting posture, in another word, it doesn't allow me to sit not-proper way.

As I was boasting that I found a very nice item, it ended up on my daughter's chair. - I am waiting my second order to be arrived now
