Hosts and hostess in Japanese nightclubs need to abide by rules and follow advice on how to interact with customers to stop the coronavirus spreading in nightlife districts, where infections have surged again, Japanese officials said on Friday.

Clusters were found among Kabukicho’s many host clubs, where young men entertain women customers over drinks, and also at the female equivalent hostess or “cabaret” clubs. “Infections are coming out of host and cabaret clubs and it’s important to take firm measures there,” Nishimura said. “We need to make sure they thoroughly follow guidelines.”
The current coronavirus situation in Tokyo was different to April, when the government imposed a state of emergency telling people stay at home and businesses to close.
