Although the number of new confirmed cases of corona19 has dropped to 800, concerns remain about the proportion of patients whose route of infection is unknown. Furthermore, the mutant corona 19 virus, which is prevalent in the UK, was first confirmed in Korea, causing an emergency to quarantine authorities. We will try to find out more by connecting journalists. Reporter Seung-Hoon Lee! First, can you first summarize the trend for COVID-19 patients? There are 808 new cases a day. Less than 970 yesterday. National shoots are 808 and foreign entries are 21. There appears to be a temporary decrease in the number of tests on weekends and holidays. There are still many infected people in the metropolitan area. There are only 530 new patients in the metropolitan area, including 297 in Seoul. Additionally, new patients were confirmed in 17 cities and provinces across the country, including 45 in Gyeongbuk and 34 in Busan. There are 11 confirmed deaths per day. Looking at trends over the past week, 7 out of 10 new patients were identified in the metropolitan area. In addition, it was counted that 1,340 people were confirmed by PCR tests in the temporary screening laboratory of the metropolitan area. There have been 134 deaths in the past week. The highest number was 81 people aged 80 and over, but two people in their 50s and one in their 40s died. Also summarize content related to the national influx of ‘Corona 19 mutant virus from UK’ confirmed today. The first confirmed cases of mutant virus originating in the UK were 3 people who entered the UK. It is about a family that arrived in London on the 22nd. There are also other participants suspected of being infected. They are four family members who were confirmed confirmed after entering the UK, and they are currently investigating whether they are infected with the mutant virus. The findings are expected to come to light this week as soon as possible. As is well known, the spread of the British mutant virus is 1.7 times stronger than that of the existing virus. It also contributed to the ‘second coronavirus outbreak’ in South Africa. The government has suspended all flights leaving London, England and arriving at Incheon International Airport on the 23rd to prevent the virus from entering Korea. However, arrivals that were confirmed to be infected with the mutant virus arrived on the 22nd, a day before the suspension of operations. Therefore, it is noted that the initial response of the government is not late. In an earlier briefing, quarantine authorities said they would extend the suspension of flights leaving the UK until the 7th of next month. It also announced that it would be required to send a ‘RCP voice confirmation’ for incoming travelers from the UK and South Africa, including transit passengers, and that it would cease issuing all new visas except for diplomatic, official or humanitarian reasons. Along with this, it was decided to carry out a ‘diagnostic test before decontention’ for all immigration. So, except in countries where the corona19 virus rarely occurs, people entering the country will be tested prior to quarantine and the mutant virus will be controlled before it spreads to the community.
