1. Japan doesn't have access to nuclear weapons, being the only country in the world that did have nukes dropped on it in anger afterall. Hence the stigma against nuclear weapons is too great for them to even consider it.

2. While the manga already makes clear the scope of the outbreak, I'll give an example shown in the next episode's preview: You can see Marine One (aka the US president's helicopter) taking off with the White House behind it. Hence the infection is global.
