Every travel insurance policy has things you won't be covered for. Common exclusions include:
Travel insurance can cover you for COVID-19 in Japan. A policy can cover you for the following:
"When I travel, I don't want to fork out a lot for travel insurance. I always get something above the bare minimum though which usually only covers medical-only expenses. Flight disruptions and delayed luggage are really common, so look for a cheap policy that covers me for these things."
For emergencies: call 110 (police), 119 (ambulance) or 119 (fire).
In a medical emergency, call for help and then contact your insurer on their emergency assistance line.
"Shop around - there are big differences in the costs of policies with similar inclusions. Wearing a mask in public if you have a cold is an expected courtesy in Japan - respect local customs if you do get ill. Take out insurance as soon as you book your trip - that maximises the value of your cover."
