It is only tentative at this stage, but looks like this is going to be the schedule for the Masters Championships.
Lots of water to flow under the bridge and possibly some heavy seas before these championships are up and running, starting with making the program final and the entry system being opened.
The promising signs are that the organizing committee is in the process of getting the medals designed and has called for volunteers for the championships. Japan is now also slowly opening up to international travel with Japan commencing to accept foreign nationals coming to the country for business trips, study abroad or technical training starting on Monday, 8 November (Japan Times.) Still to come of course is news of when other visitors to the country will be able to enter Japan.
The current situation with vaccinations in Japan is that 73.6% of the population is fully vaccinated while 78.3% have had their first shot. The comparative percentages at 4 November for the USA are 58.3 % and 67.7%, Australia 66.8% and 75.0% and France 68.3% and 76.1%
As for the numbers of new infections in Japan, on 6 November there were 230 with a 7 day average of 201.
It’s looking very favorable for the championships … at this stage.
