Are you saying the government is very cautious about raising social distancing to the third level?

[기자]

In the last week, an average of more than 800 new cases per day.

Of these, the median number of confirmed cases in Korea averages 777.4 per day, and is gradually approaching the three-stage standard of 800 to 1,000 per day.

However, the government is cautious about moving to the third level.

This is the comment of Taeho Yoon, head of the Accident Control Headquarters.

First, he said it was difficult to determine the three-stage update based on the average number of domestic cases per day.

Two conditions are added, the rate of infection of the elderly and the rate of reproduction of the infection, and it is explained that the current state of the medical system and the quarantine system is also reviewed.

In particular, the government is in the position that enough social consensus is also needed to go to step 3.

This is because if the participation rate is low in national fatigue, the effect of the third stage may be limited.

The government said it is still undergoing an internal review during the third stage of the update and will decide after reviewing the heavy script.

In addition, Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun said at the vaccine / treatment status verification meeting held today for the first time that the ministry will prepare for the corona 19 vaccine to be introduced in a timely manner from the first quarter of next year and will be vaccinated without interruptions.

In addition, given the news that the United Kingdom and the United States have started vaccination, some are concerned, and emphasized that they will introduce the amount already insured as soon as possible.
