report on behalf of the MAXI team: 

We examined MAXI/GSC all-sky X-ray images (2-20 keV) 
after the LVC trigger S190706ai at 2019-07-06 22:26:41.344 UTC (GCN 24998). 

At the trigger time of S190706ai, the high-voltage of MAXI/GSC was off, 
and it was turned on at T0+730 sec (+12.1 min). 
The first one-orbit (92 min) scan observation with GSC after the event covered 66% 
of the 90% credible region of the bayestar skymap from 22:39:0 to 23:58:30 UTC (T0+739 to T0+5509 sec). 

No significant new source was found in the region in the one-orbit scan observation. 
A typical 1-sigma averaged upper limit obtained in one scan observation 
is 20 mCrab at 2-20 keV.
