Abstract

How has the COVID-19 Pandemic Affected Travelers and Tourist Destinations?

Mitsuo Uchida*

Currently, COVID-19 is prevalent, prompting both economic and infectious disease countermeasures in Japan. In particular, the Japanese tourism industry has been economically depressed. As a countermeasure, the Government of Japan launched a campaign to encourage people to travel in 2020. As a result of this campaign, the risk of infection in travelers increased, but that of residents in tourist destinations was less affected. Eventually, the economy of the tourism industry will be revitalized worldwide, but it is hoped that travelers will adopt more thorough infectious disease countermeasures.
