The situation of the COVID-19 infection is serious. With the number of confirmed cases related to the East Seoul Detention Center approaching 800, the entire detention center is undergoing a fourth full inspection. Let’s connect the East Detention Center. Reporter Hong Min-ki! Yes, at the Eastern Detention Center, quarantine authorities are conducting the fourth full inspection since this morning. A total of 1,840 employees and detainees are covered. This is the fourth full-time inspection. As there were around 200 confirmed cases each time in the previous three tests, there is concern that a large-scale cluster infection could also occur in this fourth test. Results are expected to come out tomorrow afternoon. The confirmed cumulative cases related to the eastern detention center here, as of today at 0 o’clock, total 792. There are 30 more people than yesterday. It has 750 prisoners, 21 employees and 21 relatives and acquaintances. Including this, 837 people were confirmed in correctional facilities across the country, such as Gwangju Prison. Epidemiological investigations revealed that the eastern detention center had a typical “three million” structure. The apartment-like structure was not well ventilated and confirmed patients were difficult to separate. The detention center, which has a capacity for 2,000 people, actually housed 2,400 people. The Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Ministry of Justice have developed measures to prevent the spread of infection in detention centers. First, to prevent overcrowding, we are transferring unconfirmed prisoners to other correctional facilities such as Gangwon and Daegu. It is the so-called “relocation”, and the number of prisoners in detention centers has decreased to 1,600 units. To prevent the spread of infection in the eastern detention center, quarantine authorities are also handling confirmed cases, close contacts, and general inmates per floor. There were 6 patients with severe and severe stomach problems. One of them is a man in his 60s who died yesterday, and the other five are being transferred to a nearby hospital for treatment. In the case of a critical patient in the detention center, 21 emergency doctors will be treated and in the most urgent cases they will be transferred to the hospital emergency room. Quarantine authorities said that as confirmed cases related to the eastern detention center continue to occur, a full inspection will be conducted every three days. Hong Min-ki[[email protected]]
