Dear Editor:
We report the current situation regarding the case of multiple patients who tested positive via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the novel coronavirus infection and were transported from the Diamond Princess cruise ship, from the viewpoint of medical facilities in Yokohama City to serve as a reference for future development of emergency medical care systems in each region. Please note that the following numbers are preliminary (unconfirmed) and may change based on the counts determined by related organizations in the future.
The Medical Control Council recognizes the importance of verifying the overall situation once the crisis has settled down. Please refer to reports from each organization to gain administrative perspectives. The present report is merely one of the documents that could be used to review regional emergency medical systems when large numbers of coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) patients are observed in each region.
