In order to avoid shortages of antigen test kits, medicines, foodstuffs, and daily necessities during the period of convalescence, it is recommended that you check what you need and prepare one week's supply in advance.

We ask for your understanding for those who cannot wear a mask.

Wearing a mask has become one of the new lifestyles to prevent the spread of new coronavirus infections.
However, there are people who cannot wear masks for various reasons, such as developmental disorders, hyperesthesia, skin diseases, and respiratory diseases.
Now that wearing a mask has become commonplace, if you see someone not wearing a mask, first imagine that there might be something wrong.
Know that there are people with disabilities or symptoms who cannot wear a mask, understand their characteristics and circumstances, and spend time with compassion for each other.
