Reporter Shin Joon-myeong! At Yonsei University, the number of confirmed cases has increased. Please tell us the detailed situation. Yonsei University, where the number of confirmed cases is increasing day by day, is restricting the entry of outsiders to prevent the spread of the Corona 19 infection. The number of confirmed cases related to Yonsei University increased by 7 during the day to 19 from the last 16 until today (20) noon. On the 16th, a student attending the small group from Yonsei University College of Engineering was confirmed for the first time. Since then, the infection has spread through contact with strangers as well as the small engineering school. Of the 19 confirmed cumulative cases, 15 students, 2 families and 1 restaurant staff and other visitors, said the Defense Response Headquarters. Yonsei University has quarantined the facilities visited by the confirmed students and restricts the entry of outsiders to the building and the entire campus. Does the infection continue not only at Yonsei University, but also at Shinchon University in Seoul? So is. As the confirmed cases came from Sogang University and Hongik University near Yonsei University, Shinchon University Street, where the major universities met, was in an emergency. In the case of Sogang University, most of the facilities, including the library, were closed as confirmed students were confirmed to attend lectures in person. The Sogang University students who were confirmed yesterday (19) attended a face-to-face conference on the 17th. The student went home immediately after completing the lecture and was confirmed yesterday after undergoing a corona19 diagnostic test at the Mapo-gu public health center the next day, the Sogang University Student Association explained. First, the quarantine measures were completed in the classroom on the 1st floor of the Management Hall where the class was held. At the time, around 40 students, teachers and attendees who participated in the in-person conference were classified as close contacts, and a quarantine is underway on the school buildings and elevators they visited. Additional confirmed cases have not yet been confirmed. Sogang University posts an access restriction notice, verifies the identity of all visitors, and fully controls access by outsiders. As of today, most facilities, including the school library, have been closed, except for essential facilities. Additionally, by the 7th of the following month, all undergraduate classes, including lab training, will be converted to non-classroom. At Hongik University, a student living in the dormitory was confirmed yesterday. As epidemiological investigations are still ongoing at each school, there is a high possibility that additional confirmed cases will increase. Prime Minister Chung Sye-gyun requested the cooperation of the young generation to refrain from face-to-face activities except in essential cases such as studies, and said it is difficult to manage the range and speed of spread due to the nature of the young people with many asymptomatic infections.
