Abstract

COVID-19 infectious diseases require comprehensive measures to prevent the spread of the disease, including, laws, social conditions and technical measures not to mention medical measures such as drugs and vaccines. Legal restrictions, self-restraint, social pressure, affordance, nudge, etc. can be considered as promising legal, social means and privacy protection, but these are not effective on their own, and how they can be combined is pursued in a form of Japanese-English joint research activities.
