The number of corona19 patients in Korea increased by 64 per day yesterday.

As of today (4) 0 o’clock, the number of new confirmed cases yesterday was 64.

Both national and foreign entries decreased compared to the previous day.

This resulted in 24,091 cumulative confirmed cases.

The daily increase in new cases remained in double digits for the fourth day in a row.

When observing the route of infection, 47 cases were national and 17 imported from abroad.

The domestic outbreak was largely affected by the outbreak in the metropolitan area.

There were 16 in Seoul, 14 in Gyeonggi and 5 in Incheon, adding up to 35 in the metropolitan area alone.

In the area outside the capital, there were no occurrences except for 12 patients from 5 regions, including 5 in Busan, 3 in Gyeongbuk, 2 in Daejeon, and 1 each in Ulsan and Chungbuk.

Of the 17 foreign patients, 9 came out of the immigration quarantine stage.

The number of deaths increased by 1 and the cumulative number of deaths reached 421.

The number of serious or seriously ill patients was 105, an increase from the previous day.

After the cure, the number of people removed from quarantine increased by 58 to a total of 21,845.

First of all, the spread of Corona 19 during the holiday season seems somewhat slow.

There are also many concerns that the number of confirmed cases could increase significantly after the Christmas season, right?

[기자]

On the 30th of last month, the first day of the holidays, the number of new confirmed cases registered 113.

On day 1, 77 people went down again, to 100 people, and after that, 63 people on the 2nd, 75 people on the 3rd, and 64 people today.

If you look at the numbers, there is a slight fluctuation and the spread is slowing down.

However, it cannot be ruled out that the number of inspections during the holiday period itself has decreased, which has affected them.

The actual number of inspections yesterday was 6,400, 40% less than the day of the week before the Christmas season.

In this situation, there is great concern that a ‘silent transmission’ has occurred on these holidays, focused on asymptomatic and mild patients and patients whose route of infection is unknown.

Two returnees who have already visited Busan have been confirmed, and additional confirmations of existing infected groups and small-scale infections of new groups also continue in several locations.

Previously, quarantine authorities have repeatedly emphasized that this Chuseok holiday will be a milestone for the Corona 19 epidemic this fall and winter.

Consequently, the authorities plan to make every possible effort to prevent the spread, maintaining the second stage of social distancing until the 11th, which is a special quarantine period.
