The more I read, the more anxious I feel.??: Don’t panic first. News often selects the most eye-catching events to report. Good or ordinary daily life rarely makes headlines.??: But when it’s written like this all the time, I start to feel like Japan is dangerous everywhere. Should I call my family in Osaka to check on them???: It’s fine to care about your family, but you also need to learn to judge: look at the time, place, and data, then compare with local Japanese news. Don’t let headlines lead you.??: What about issues like syphilis? The photos I saw were terrifying. It felt like ‘all of Japan is like this.’??: Public health is indeed important, but ‘the whole country is like this’ is usually exaggerated. Media like to tell stories through individual cases. You can remember one saying: hearing from all sides brings clarity.??: Are things like bear attacks and earthquake injuries also amplified? I’m learning Chinese, but at the same time I’m becoming more and more anxious.??: Disasters can happen in any country. What matters is the response and the real level of risk. You can treat the news as learning material: learn vocabulary, and also learn to ask questions—‘Is this true? Are there other perspectives?’
