There were 970 new cases of Corona 19. Yesterday and yesterday, the number of confirmed cases dropped to 1,000, but today the number of confirmed cases has dropped to triple digits. The government decides this afternoon whether to raise social distancing to the third level. We will connect reporters to learn more about the news. Reporter Seung-yoon Lee! The number of new patients has been reduced to three places, can you tell us the trend of cases confirmed by corona19? At 0 o’clock today, there are 970 new cases. It’s a decrease of 1,241 people yesterday and 1,132 yesterday, which was the highest in history even among the special quarantine measures over the end of the year and the New Year holidays. When looking at the infection route, the national outbreaks were 946 and the foreign entries were 24. When looking at the current state of domestic outbreaks by region, the spread of the metropolitan area rarely shows signs of abating. Seoul has 359, Gyeonggi 237 and Incheon 60 with 656 new patients. In the non-metropolitan area, new patients arrived from 17 provinces across the country, including 55 in Chungnam, 44 in Gyeongnam, 40 in Busan, 32 in Gyeongbuk and 24 in Chungbuk. Of the 24 confirmed foreign entries, 10 were confirmed during the quarantine stage. The additional death toll is 15 and the cumulative death toll is 808. The number of patients with severe gastric disorders decreased from 6 to 293. The problem is that around 30% of patients whose route of infection is unknown, worsening quarantine indicators. The number of cases of unknown infection increased to 27.1% in 22, to 27.4% in 23, to 27.8% in 24, to 27.2% in 25 and yesterday to 28.6%. It means that approximately 3 out of 10 confirmed cases do not know when and where they were infected, which means that “hidden infections” are widespread in local communities. In the midst of this, the government held an important script meeting this afternoon and decided whether to increase the distance. If it is. Currently, stage 2.5 of the metropolitan area and the second stage of the non-metropolitan area will end tomorrow, so we decided whether to expand or improve the distance. The third phase is actually a strong measure equivalent to the blockade, and enormous social and economic damages are expected, so the government has been cautious. However, as the number of confirmed cases is increasing rapidly and the rate of unknown infection routes remains at around 30%, the pressure to improve is mounting. The government again demanded compliance with special measures to strengthen the quarantine during the end of the year and New Year holidays, such as the prohibition of gatherings of 5 or more people throughout the country.
