To spread awareness about the deadly coronavirus, Japan has devised a new and innovative plan. A large fluffy cat mascot, Koronon, has been introduced by Japan in order to spread awareness about the pandemic-causing virus. Japan is noted especially for using mascots to spread awareness about various things in the past. Recently, anti-coronavirus Koronon has been introduced to spread awareness to the public about coronavirus.
Anti-coronavirus Mascot, Koronon
The mascot has been seen to be making rounds across Tokyo and handing out masks to anyone who is not wearing one. The anti-coronavirus mascot can also be spotted in the districts like Shinjuku. It asks people to observe the norms of social distancing and sanitize their hands regularly. Tokyo wishes to come back to its usual busy schedule and the Mascot is present on the streets to remind people that the pandemic is not yet over and the deathly disease still exists on earth. The restaurants and bars are closing off quickly in Tokyo. It has also been noted that the business is not like what it used to be in Tokyo before the pandemic according to the Japan Covid update.
First Appearance Of Koronon
The mascot Koronon made its first appearance among the public in the year 2020. On 5th September, it was first introduced to share masks among the people on the road. This was also used as a measure to spread awareness among the people. The mascot itself wears a mask and a face shield, as said in the coronavirus news. This shows the appropriate measures of security that can help an individual to avoid the virus infection. The word COVID-19 is shown to have a big X over its belly. This anti-coronavirus mascot is definitely one of the favourites of the crowd.

The objective of having such an influential anti-coronavirus mascot is to avoid the spread of viruses within the country.
