TOKYO -- Japan plans to issue guidelines for night spots, such as hostess bars and host clubs, where close contact is part of the job. Venues will ask customers to provide contact information so that authorities can trace those who have come in close contact with an infected person in the event of a coronavirus outbreak.
Nikkei learned the details of the guidelines on Wednesday. The government plans to issue the directive before June 19, the date when the request to suspend business at such entertainment establishments is to be lifted.
