Japan may have had a "copy" of the virus that wasn't easily transmitted to others during round #1. They were very good at first and then the wheels fall off the cart. Do you think that changed their habits that much that they went from good to bad.

If this is indeed a second wave for them and it's infecting more people increased transmissibility is likely.
