How might coronavirus impact a vacation to Japan?

I am planning an April trip to Japan from NYC. Will coronavirus likely have any impact on a vacation to Japan, at that time?

We are two Americans who will be spending about two weeks in Tokyo, and other cities. We aren't concerned about coronavirus itself, but the ways it might interfere with a vacation.

I know that no one can predict the future, but some questions we have:
1) Are there likely to be any travel restrictions within Japan during that time?
2) Are any tourist areas, markets, attractions and other public areas likely to be closed because of coronavirus?
3) Is it possible there would be some kind of quarantine period coming to Japan, or coming back to the US?
4) We are looking for flights that do not have a stop-over in China. Is there any other advice regarding travel to and from Japan?

Is there anything to know regarding coronavirus before making plans to visit Japan?
