ORANGE RANGE vocalist HIROKI has been infected with the novel coronavirus. 

According to the announcement, the band's appearance in 'MUSIC STATION SUMMER FES' on the 20th was cancelled after HIROKI came down with a fever. He took the PCR test at a medical institution and learned that he had contracted the virus. While his condition is stable, he will continue to recuperate under instruction of the health center.

Among the members, YAMATO (Vo), YOH (Ba), and NAOTO (Gt) rode in the same car with HIROKI on the 19th, so they are planning to get tested as well.
