At the end of the year, the government held a drainage camp to reduce the daily number of new confirmed cases in the metropolitan area to 150.

To find the so-called ‘silent spreader’, even if there is no history of symptoms or contact with the confirmed person, a diagnostic test will be performed at no charge.

The number of new confirmed cases exceeds 600 daily.

To stop the spread of the third pandemic, the government issued a “preventive inspection” card.

Anyone who does not have suspicious symptoms like cough and fever, and has not come into contact with a confirmed person, can get a free diagnostic test.

It can be tested not only in public health centers, but also in private medical institutions such as university hospitals.

In particular, recent infections in the metropolitan area represent about 70% of the total.

Temporary screening clinics are also set up in 150 places, such as university districts and Seoul Station, where many young people gather and intensive exams are held for three weeks.

It is a will to find in advance the asymptomatic or slightly confirmed patients, the so-called ‘quiet preachers’, and to break the expansion of the metropolitan area before the end of the year.

In order not to worry about the effect of stigma and to avoid being reluctant to be tested, you can do so anonymously, regardless of symptoms, by providing your mobile phone number.

In addition, the hours of operation of the screening clinics of the metropolitan area public health center are extended until 9:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 6:00 p.m. on weekends.

The government has also announced that it will reduce the number of new confirmed cases in the metropolitan area to 150 by the end of the year by increasing the number of corona diagnostic tests, which can reach 110,000 cases per day.
