		</div><p>Japan is barring entry of all nonresident foreign nationals as a precaution against the new coronavirus variant that has spread across the UK.</p>
<p>The Foreign Ministry says the entry ban will start on Monday and last through January 31.</p>
<p>Last week, Japan banned nonresident foreigners coming from Britain and South Africa after confirming the new variant in seven people over the last two days — five from Britain who tested positive at airports and two others in Tokyo.</p>
<p>Japan is also suspending the exemption of a 14-day quarantine for Japanese nationals and resident foreigners in a short-track program that began in November.</p>
<p>The entrants now must carry proof of a negative test 72 hours prior to departure for Japan and self-isolate for two weeks after arrival.</p>
<p>Japan is struggling with surging cases since November. It has confirmed a total of 217,312 cases including 3,213 deaths, up 3,700 from the previous 24-hour period.</p>
<p>Tokyo alone reported 949 cases, setting a new record, despite calls by experts and government officials for people to spend a “quiet” holiday season.</p>
