    The Yamanashi Grapevine

    The Yamanashi Grapevine July 2003 Editor’s note Before summer’s heat saps all our energy, we went to visit two cities in Yamanashi. The first, Fujiyoshida, is probably the most famous place in Yamanashi as it is the point from where most Mount Fuji climbers start their long journey to the top. The second, Nirasaki, may not be as well renowned, but it might be known to some football (or should I say “soccer”?!) fans as the home of the high school where current Parma player Hidetoshi Nakata’s talent was discovered. On page 8, Geoff Wigan, an Assistant Language Teacher on the Table of Contents JET programme, takes us on a philosophical journey through his first year in p.2 Nirasaki City Yamanashi. p.4 Fujiyoshida City This edition holds a special meaning to me as it marks my last contribution to the P.6 News Spotlight Grapevine. As a writer and an editor, I have had the opportunity to experience and share the richness of nature in Yamanashi as well as the warmth of its p.8 ALT Experiences people, which is something I will never forget. p.10 Upcoming Events Lastly, you might be surprised by the cover photograph.

Government issued Guidelines When should I, and how can I consult a medical professional? HELPFUL RESOURCES April 6th , 2020 May 8 th , 2020rev What is COVID-19? COVID-19 is the new respiratory disease spreading around the world and it is caused by a coronavirus. COVID-19 is short for Coronavirus Disease 2019. The 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) often referred to as COVID-19 or more simply, the coronavirus is a severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) that was newley identified in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. Since the first cases were reported, the outbreak has rapidly spread through China and many locations worldwide. Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that can cause illness in both humans and animals. The illnesses brought about from the coronavirus have ranged from the common cold (ex. Respiratory syndrome, fever, cough, etc.) to more severe sicknesses such as pneumonia and severe acute respiratory syndrome . PLEASE NOTE: The virus that causes COVID-19 and the one that caused the outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) in 2003 are related to each other genetically, but the diseases they cause are quite different. SARS was more deadly but much less infectious than COVID-19, the SARS that may be caused by the coronavirus is a different strain of this so please keep this in mind. As of April 06, 2020 there have been over 1,270,000 in at least 180 countries and territories with the highest numbers being in America, Italy, Spain, China and Germany in that order.

    Appendix 2 Revision to the Operation Should the Planned Blackouts Are Implemented

    Appendix 2 Revision to the operation should the planned blackouts are implemented Based on the “countermeasures for electricity supply and demand balance during summertime” indicated by the government, from June 20 (Mon), we will revise the operation of the planned blackouts should we have to implement the planned blackouts. 1. Grouping of the planned blackouts (1) Future groupings and additional areas subject to blackouts In principle, there is no change to the groupings as we continue to use the same groupings we implemented this March. From now on, by revising the operation of the electricity supply route and the method to supply electricity to railroads, customers who were not subject to blackouts in March are, in principle, subject to planned blackouts. <exhibit 1> (2) Notification of the groupings ① From June 15 (Wed), we will indicate your group on the monthly “notification of the electricity consumption (meter reading voucher)”. You are requested to confirm. ② From today, you can search your groupings on our website (computer and mobile). In the past, there were cases that several groups were shown. We revised the website so that only one group will be shown. <exhibit 2> 2. Number and duration of planned blackouts We continue to change each group’s planned blackout time everyday. In order to lower customers’ burden by the blackouts as much as possible, we limit the number of planned blackouts to once in a day. We also shorten the duration from the previous three hours to “two hours between 9:30 am to 8:00 pm”. We will announce the plan for the number and duration of planned blackouts on our website from June 15 (Wed).
