Information on infection prevention at classical music performances following the transition of the novel coronavirus disease to a Category 5 infectious disease

The COVID-19 infection prevention guidelines for classical music performances were abolished when the event was upgraded to a Category 5 infectious disease on May 8th. The infection prevention measures recommended by the Classical Music Performance Management Promotion Council from May 8th onwards are as follows:

1. Wearing or removing a mask inside the venue is at your own discretion.
2. If you are cheering (e.g., calling "Bravo") inside the venue, we recommend that you wear a mask.
3. We ask that customers who have a fever or are feeling unwell refrain from visiting.
4. We recommend that you observe cough etiquette and properly disinfect your hands within the venue.
