The number of new confirmed corona19 cases in Korea, which had been temporarily reduced to 500 people, rose to the end of 600 people in just one day.
Today (9) 686 people at 0 o’clock, 700 people reached the bottom of the chin.
This is the highest number since 909 people on February 29, which was the peak of the “first pandemic” centered in Daegu and Gyeongbuk.
It was the second largest daily new patient in history, the same size as on March 2.
The radio wave area is also wide, with confirmed cases leaving all 17 cities and provinces one day yesterday.
In particular, the situation in Seoul and Gyeonggi, where 200 new patients have been produced, is dire.
Including Incheon, the number of new confirmed cases in the metropolitan area yesterday exceeded 79% of the total national outbreak.
Furthermore, as the speed of spread of everyday spaces is faster than in the first and second epidemics, even epidemiological investigations are struggling.
In fact, as of 0:00 yesterday, the infection route “investigation” rate for the past two weeks was 20.7%.
It is said that 1 in 5 new confirmed cases during this period do not know when and where they were infected.
As such, it has become difficult to find the infection circuit and prevent further transmission.
Although the government has announced plans to purchase vaccines, it will take a considerable amount of time to correct.
This winter, the ‘third pandemic’ is becoming the biggest step in the corona 19 outbreak.
As the proportion of infections increased in the metropolitan area, the Seoul Metropolitan Government extended the hours of operation of screening clinics both on weekdays and weekends.
With the trend of expansion with no signs of abatement, staff fatigue in screening clinics is only mounting.

It’s been a while since the screening clinic opened, are there still a lot of people waiting?
[기자]After the lunch break, there are still many people in the clinic waiting for the test.
The Gangnam-gu detection clinic continues to operate without lunch breaks.
So far, more than 500 people have been tested.
This is because the number of new confirmed cases has recently increased to around 600 and the number of test subjects has increased significantly.
In particular, the proportion of confirmed patients in the metropolitan area is increasing and the burden of testing at local health centers is also increasing.
The screening clinic staff are now tired of the eternal infection.
Let’s hear their stories first hand.
[정용영 / 선별진료소 내과전문의 : 평일 700명도 많다고 했는데 최근에는 매일 천명 씩 하면 일하는 직원들이 피로가 누적돼서…. 저희가 돌아가면서 쉬긴 하는데 검체 수가 많아지면 너나 할 것 없이 다 나와서 돕기 때문에 쉬지 못하는 분들도 많습니다.]In Gangnam-gu, where I am on the list, if there were around 500 people who generally visit the clinic a day, it has recently risen to the 1,000 level.
Consequently, Seoul decided to extend the hours of operation of the health center’s screening clinic.
It was increased at 9:00 p.m. M. During the week and at 6:00 p.m. M. On weekends.
As a result, some screening clinics in Seoul, which were closed on weekends, are also open.
The screening clinic here in Gangnam-gu is originally until 7pm on weekends, so it will run as usual.
In addition, the city of Seoul announced that it plans to reinstall the vehicle detection clinic, which had been suspended.
Citizens who want to get tested even if they have no symptoms can get a free test by visiting 7 municipal hospitals in Seoul.
Quarantine authorities also plan to introduce a saliva test method in the metropolitan area, which detects viruses directly in saliva.
[앵커]The proportion of infections in the metropolitan area is high among all confirmed cases, so please tell us about the infection situation.
[기자]The infection continues in all living spaces in the metropolitan area.
There are 270 new confirmed cases in the Seoul area alone.
Of the recently confirmed cases, the metropolitan area accounts for about 70%.
First, as of today (9), there were 24 infections in the so-called Hold’em Pub, a card game bar in Yongsan, Seoul.
An additional employee of the Hold’em Pub Western Lounge and four additional visitors and acquaintances of the Hold’em Pub tested positive.
As the quarantine authorities have obtained a list of visitors and diagnostic tests continue, the number of confirmed cases is likely to rise further.
The expansion of Pagoda Town, a restaurant in Jongno-gu, Seoul, has not slowed down.
As a result of the Seoul Metropolitan Government’s count at 0:00 today (9th), 164 people have been infected so far.
This is a pattern of serial infections when a confirmed infected person in a restaurant also visits a singing class.
21 people, including merchants, have been confirmed at Jung-gu Market, Seoul.
Seven more people were infected during the day.
In two nursing homes in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, 32 and 21 were confirmed.
As the number of confirmed cases continues to rise throughout life, the concerns of quarantine authorities are mounting.
