Quick translation of AKB48’s Hama Sayuna’s tweet and the linked company statement on her recovery from Covid-19 and return to work:

First let me say, for the great deal of worry and inconvenience I have caused due to my infection by the novel coronavirus, most of all to my fans, but also to the members and various people I am involved with, I am truly sorry.

I have been recuperating at home following the instructions from medical institutions and health care centers, and thankfully my physical condition has recovered. Having also reached the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare’s established criteria for ending my recuperation, starting today, January 3rd, I will be resuming my activities.

While I was recuperating I was greatly inspired by the messages I received from so many different people. Really, truly, thank you very much.

Thank you for your continued support as from here on I will diligently follow every measure, take care in the management of my health, and strive to carry on my activities without forgetting my core purpose and gratitude.
