July 16, 2026
This article explains key points for preventing infectious diseases in your daily life. Learn simple habits — like handwashing, staying rested, and avoiding crowds — that can help protect your health.
To prevent infectious diseases, it is important to wash your hands frequently and practice good cough etiquette. Keeping the air from getting too dry is also important — be especially careful during winter when the air tends to dry out easily. In addition, try to eat nutritious meals and get enough rest to strengthen your immune system. When going out, take steps to reduce your risk of infection, such as avoiding crowded places. --- Source: Immigration Services Agency of Japan "Life and Work Guidebook" 第8版 https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/support/portal/guidebook_all.html This article was reorganized by SIAデジタルテクノロジー株式会社 based on the above source. ※This language version is a machine translation from the Japanese version (SIAデジタルテクノロジー株式会社).
