TOKYO (Reuters) – Japan will extend its COVID-19 border-control measures for the time being, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said on Tuesday, giving no end-date for one of the world’s strictest curbs on foreign visitors.
Kishida also told a news conference that he would make arrangements so that Pfizer’s coronavirus oral drugs would be available early next year.
