It is also important to temporarily remove your mask and take a break in a place where you can maintain a sufficient distance from others.<\/p>\n<p>When going out, avoid hot days and times and try to wear cool clothing.<br \/>\n\u3000<br \/>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mhlw.go.jp\/stf\/seisakunitsuite\/bunya\/0000121431_coronanettyuu.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/pw\/ACtC-3dICc4PxuacRUIjROXFf_khH3fRBG_OkoJ_mSW_Tk1oIf5Yz1H_VbOTFs4GAPuG6FQuixhK3zqY_NO5lajulay4OFh36AmjaHsNoVwbmkhUWn7kbgb46gcABV4tStS37Hh5ZB7vyBocjWNnwq5tOP8v=w1001-h891-no?authuser=0\" width=\"1001\" height=\"891\" alt=\"Key points for preventing heatstroke in the &quot;new lifestyle&quot;\" class=\"size-medium\" style=\"border:solid 1px blue\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Key points for preventing heatstroke in the &quot;new lifestyle&quot;<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mhlw.go.jp\/stf\/seisakunitsuite\/bunya\/0000121431_coronanettyuu.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/pw\/ACtC-3e36-84V9naQ2s0rf6S9bUm557iDjxut3bUxpxwevenzCMvuBS-X-z4j3LKgoFzDreY2-vaO7e6J06eaDaABjKv_X2bMbdjR3AefUHe8BO3TofhMjahbEx8VFB6RnUCklF5LxLYniJYf2pFEUn7B3c-=w635-h897-no?authuser=0\" width=\"634\" height=\"897\" alt=\"Remove your mask outdoors to prevent heatstroke [Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare]\" class=\"size-medium\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Remove your mask outdoors to prevent heatstroke [Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare]<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mhlw.go.jp\/stf\/seisakunitsuite\/bunya\/0000121431_coronanettyuu.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/pw\/ACtC-3fIr6ou9l4OXa8tjthNviX348unaxfTQ-fX23OsaOyI5iQei289UPZ52fBT6GpqKY8BItlGExEoMfFBrx0c84N_ruaVo-bYhD1jzaE0rM_6ixC_idQ4hb5-4kflcFS5C1V5R_OngByD2776otK677i7=w635-h897-no?authuser=0\" width=\"634\" height=\"897\" alt=\"Remove your mask outdoors to prevent heatstroke [Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare]\" class=\"size-medium\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Remove your mask outdoors to prevent heatstroke [Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare]<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\uff12\uff10\uff12\uff10\u5e74\uff17\u6708\uff12\u65e5\uff08\u6728\uff09 \u539a\u751f\u52b4\u50cd\u7701\u306e\u30db\u30fc\u30e0\u30da\u30fc\u30b8\u306b\u3001\u300c\u65b0\u3057\u3044\u751f\u6d3b\u69d8\u5f0f\u300d\u306b\u304a\u3051\u308b\u71b1\u4e2d\u75c7\u4e88\u9632\u884c\u52d5\u306e\u30dd\u30a4\u30f3\u30c8\u304c\u63b2\u8f09\u3055\u308c\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3002\u305d\u306e\u4e2d\u3067\u3001\u300c\u30de\u30b9\u30af\u306e\u7740\u7528\u306b\u3064\u3044\u3066\u300d\u306e\u8a18\u8f09\u304c\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3059\u306e\u3067\u3001\u5f15\u7528\u3057\u3066\u3054\u7d39\u4ecb\u3057\u307e\u3059 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3407,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3406","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-related-to-hokuryu"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3406","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3406"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3406\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3407"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3406"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3406"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/portal.hokuryu.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3406"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
