Japan weighs plan for ban on hotel guests without masks

Japan’s government is considering allowing hotels to refuse entry to guests who do not wear masks and follow other measures to control infection during an outbreak.
The Fuji News Network said, the government will submit a bill at an extraordinary session of parliament next month that would revise the law governing hotels and inns, allowing them more power to enforce infection measures.
The move would come at a time when Japan is expected to further ease its COVID-19 border controls, waiving visa requirements for certain tourists and removing a limit on daily arrivals.
The ruling Liberal Democratic Party is scheduled to debate border easing measures on Thursday.
