You can't sing along Happy or Brown Sugar with the Rolling Stones

 


The spread of the new coronavirus in Japan is said to be smaller than in Western countries, and a number of factors have been cited as contributing to this. 

People in Japan have always been highly conscious of cleanliness, washing their hands and gargling. 

Unlike in the West, people are less likely to use greetings such as handshakes and hugs. 

Other factors include the fact that in English, for example, there are popping sounds on the lips when words are uttered (e.g., when pronouncing "P" and "B"), while in Japanese, there are fewer popping sounds.
