Tokyo posted its biggest daily jump in coronavirus infections today
More than 40 cases were reported earlier today, taking the total count in the city to around 200 - surpassing Hokkaido as the city with most infections in Japan.
Tokyo governor, Yuriko Koike, is set to make a press briefing at 1100 GMT and has already warned yesterday that they may go into a more strict lockdown if there is an explosive surge in the number of virus cases in the city.
