Hatsune Miku becomes Japan's ambassador for supporting the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic

On September 9, Japan's Anti-COVID-19 Command and Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Yasutoshi Nishimura announced that the famous virtual idol Hatsune Miku will be appointed as the image ambassador for Japan's anti-COVID-19 support, and her term of office will be from September 9, 2020 to March 31, 2021.

·Although the Japanese government did not expect the epidemic to rebound quickly after announcing the lifting of the national state of emergency for the COVID-19 pandemic, the situation has improved slightly but is still extremely serious. As a major anime country, it is time to choose a character to cheer up the people. Since the official appointment period will last until March next year, it seems that the Japanese government’s estimate of the improvement of the epidemic situation is not optimistic.

According to official sources, during her time as an ambassador for supporting the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, Hatsune Miku will work in real time with the various anti-epidemic measures announced by the Chief Cabinet Secretary to publicize and encourage the implementation of various anti-epidemic measures. Action will be taken soon, so stay tuned.
