当COVID-19第一波袭击日本时，怀孕人数与去年同月相比大幅下降。本文探讨了政府要求留在家中的影响，并确定了以下两点：（i）政府要求自我克制，使怀孕人数减少了5%至8%;（ii）在法律规定需要特别预防的地区，怀孕人数比其他地区低2%至3%。
When the first wave of COVID-19 hit Japan, the number of pregnancies dropped significantly compared to the same month last year. This paper examines the impact of the government's request to remain at home and identifies the following two points: (i) government's request for self-restraint reduced the number of pregnancies by five to eight percent; and (ii) the number of pregnancies in areas legally designated as requiring special precautions was significantly two to three percent lower than in other areas.
