Japan stands a beacon to Americans and most of the industrialized world for its COVID vaccine policies, which are far more humane and realistic than those foisted on us by Fauci & Co.
In The Epoch Times, Aaron Kheriaty writes:
Japan’s ministry of health is taking a sensible, ethical approach to Covid vaccines. They recently labeled the vaccines with a warning about myocarditis and other risks. They also reaffirmed their commitment to adverse event reporting to document potential side-effects.
Japan’s ministry of health states: “Although we encourage all citizens to receive the COVID-19 vaccination, it is not compulsory or mandatory. Vaccination will be given only with the consent of the person to be vaccinated after the information provided.”
Furthermore, they state: “Please get vaccinated of your own decision, understanding both the effectiveness in preventing infectious diseases and the risk of side effects. No vaccination will be given without consent.”
Finally, they clearly state: “Please do not force anyone in your workplace or those who around you to be vaccinated, and do not discriminate against those who have not been vaccinated.”
They also link to a “Human Rights Advice” page that includes instructions for handling any complaints if individuals face vaccine discrimination at work.

I don’t think the cause is a generalized concern for restraint when it comes to the ministries of the Japanese national government. While it is true that a sincere concern for human rights has become part of Japan’s national culture since the Occupation reforms installed by the US and Allies after Japan’s defeat in WW II, high-handedness on the part of national bureaucrats is far from unknown there. They are recruited from elite universities and are widely regarded as the best and the brightest, not least by themselves. I have personally witnessed the difference in the way in which bureaucrats are treated in the US and Japan, and it is substantial.
Personnel working flights into Japan are required to quarantine the entire time of their layover. Restricted to the hotel, injection or not. Japan may not be requiring jabs, but they are also heavily restricting movement.
Does Japan put out reliable stats on the covid death rate?
Naw, we can’t have that much common sense in Washington, D.C. What will everyone think of us???? Sarcasm intended.
It’s averaging 1 or 2 deaths a day. Miniscule.
