What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Japan about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"My experiences with the local healthcare system in Japan during the pandemic have been generally positive. The healthcare system has been very responsive to the pandemic, with the government providing clear guidance on how to prevent the spread of the virus and how to seek medical attention if needed. The healthcare system has also been very efficient in providing testing and treatment for those who need it. In addition, the healthcare system has been very supportive of those who are struggling financially due to the pandemic, providing financial assistance and other forms of support. Overall, I have been very impressed with the way the healthcare system in Japan has responded to the pandemic," said another expat in Japan.
"Tokyo has managed it very well, and during this outbreak, the standard of medical care there has been superb," wrote a member who made the move to Tokyo, Japan.
