Boardwalk Co., Ltd., which operates the largest electronic ticket service in Japan, "ticket board," will start a new service in collaboration with the new coronavirus infection control solution "MyPass" developed by Alum Co., Ltd.The system is supervised by Professor Takeo Fujiwara of Tokyo Medical and Dental University.This is the first time in Japan that a ticket service and a new coronavirus infectious disease control solution have been linked.

 The new coronavirus from the beginning of 2020 has had a great impact on industries with an unspecified number of people, such as entertainment and sports. MyPass is the world's first solution that realizes strict one-stop infectious disease risk management, and its introduction can be expected to hold events based on scientific infectious disease countermeasures.

 In the new system, when you purchase a ticket from the ticket board, you will receive a PCR / antibody test kit.The purchaser downloads Alum's lifesaving / health support app "MySOS" and measures body temperature, subjective symptoms, blood oxygen saturation concentration, and respiratory rate from 10 days before the visit and records it in MySOS.Upload the results of the PCR / antibody test conducted the day before your visit.

 Participants who are suspected of being infected at the time of admission on the day will be able to enter if there is no problem after the medical team conducts a PCR test on the spot.Even if an infected person is found after the event, it can be immediately tracked by Boardwalk's electronic ticket management system.In addition, a compensation system will be prepared for participants who have self-reported infection in cooperation with an insurance company.

 This maximizes the risk of infectious diseases and allows events with thousands or tens of thousands of people to be held at full capacity.At the same time as the re-activity of the entertainment industry such as concerts, plays, and watching sports, the aim is to re-provide an experience that participants can enjoy safely, securely, and casually.
