<p>The baseball stadium in Yokohama will be used this weekend in an experiment to test if its 32,000 seats can be filled safely.</p>

<p>Japanese professional baseball games are being played there, but are currently only using half the seats.</p>

<p>Officials are using high-precision cameras, carbon dioxide-monitoring devices and wind-speed measuring machines as part of measures against Covid-19.</p>
<p>“We will report our findings here to the government,” said Kiyotaka Eguchi, an official of the Kanagawa prefecture.</p>
<p>“The information we get here will be reflected in the guidelines, and that will also be used for the next year’s Olympics and professional baseball.”</p>
<p>The Yokohama stadium will be used as a venue for next year’s Olympics, which are to open on July 23.</p>

<p>“I think this is a good opportunity to take a step forward because if the stadium isn’t full, the team will be in trouble,” Yokohama BayStars fan Tetsuya Nakamura said.</p>
<p>About 1,750 deaths in Japan have been attributed to Covid-19, a relatively low number in a country of 126 million.</p>
