Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread worldwide, and the World Health Organization categorized it as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on hospitals throughout the globe and caused a collapse of medical care in many regions. Although Tokyo did not experience a medical collapse, several major hospitals were affected. There were no restrictions on hospital admission, and all hospital wards were free to admit patients. However, due to surgical restrictions, many surgeries were canceled and surgical admissions were postponed. Patient-initiated suppression of medical visits further decreased the number of patients who were admitted to the hospital.
