Well Abe, you gotta shave your beard off...

I think the Japanese have a built in immunity. There is no other explanation.

"There is no other explanation"

They haven't been social distancing.

Exactly. There's no explanation for it

Josef K

Social distancing isn't necessary with good hygiene.

Harbinger

3/24/20 5:27pm

I don't think that is true. Reading about how this virus can spread.

Josef K

If your wash your hands, wear a mask and don't touch your face its pretty tough

Tokyo's climate is very similar right now in temperature and humidity

Gee, it couldn't be that maybe the virus is not as (statistically) deadly as....

So you think its all just a hoax?

They have an immunity that the Chinese themselves don’t have?

China is a huge place with a pretty heterogeneous society

If Japan had "seen this virus a few times" already, then why wasn't it spread...

Not sure but...

Serious quarantines for inbound international traffic; sick people staying home

They are all germophobes. SARS was big there along with other outbreaks

3/24/20 5:16pm

I agree they are a clean society but they haven't had any large-scale lockdowns.

Japan is definitely an outlier. Some things that probably work in their favor,

I won't argue with you on these things. They definitely helped.

It definitely isn't a guarantee. However, it seems like it would help, all else
