In the March 28 issue of AERA, we interviewed this earthquake. We asked an expert about "preparation" in the disaster of the corona. *** How can I prepare for a disaster like this earthquake in the Corona evil? The government recommends that you stock up for at least three days to one week for drinking water (3 liters a day per day) and emergency foods such as cup noodles, alpha rice, biscuits, and canned foods for at least three days to one week. What I want to do is to know the risk of disasters around my home. The most common tool is the hazard map. It is created by local governments and can be seen on the Internet. Yukiko Okamoto, a disaster prevention advisor of "Disaster Prevention Creative Management" (Osaka Sayama City, Osaka Prefecture), which conducts a comprehensive disaster prevention consultant business, points out: "It is important to think about" dispersion evacuation "to prevent secrets in corona evil." Distributed evacuation is to protect yourself not only in evacuation centers designated by local governments, but also in various places. Okamoto mentions general priority, evacuation at home, relatives, acquaintances, tents, and shelters. "In the case of condominiums, the building is unlikely to collapse, and if you can live," evacuation from home is basically ". It is important to talk about where to evacuate and respond to the response after the disaster. Corona. Many people have changed their rhythm due to the influence of this, and it is important to share information with their families once again. "In many cases, there are only options. Mr. Okamoto says that it is necessary to take the area around the area so that evacuation shelters with high infection prevention can be realized.

It is also important to have infection prevention goods that are sometimes useful. The country requires masks, body thermometer and hygiene supplies. On top of that, Okamoto recommends three items: nail clippers, slippers, and oral care products. "Nail clippers are often preparing nails even after a disaster, leading to infection prevention. Slippers may have viruses on the floor. Prepare D to prevent infection through the floor. Let's do it. And since the clean oral environment is connected to the health of the whole body, it is useful to prepare a mouthwash, toothpaste sheet, and xylitol gum that can be used without water as an oral care.
