[사회]Large-scale operation of a temporary screening clinic … “Anonymous free examination”

[앵커]

As free diagnostic tests began to respond to the explosive spread of Corona 19, temporary screening clinics were also opened and operated throughout the metropolitan area.

Anyone can take the test anonymously.

Reporter Jung Hyun-woo’s report.

Temporary detection clinic installed in front of Seoul station.

Even in the weather, which dropped to -10 degrees Celsius, there were long lines of people in thick coats.

You can receive your test results by text message within 48 hours. Take the quiz and go to the empty seat.

As of 9 a.m., when the door was opened, there were few lines waiting to be inspected all day.

The clinic staff do not have time to rest.

The temporary screening clinics set up around the universities are also busy.

From early in the morning, dozens of district office workers wore quarantine uniforms,

“This way, I will tie the rope and give you galoshes.”

We welcome people who wait in the distance.

The examination method in the temporary screening clinic is anonymous.

The burden of proof was further reduced by allowing you to easily analyze saliva composition or receive a rapid antigen test that gives a result in 30 minutes.

There is also a way to put saliva in a cup, but the field medical team recommends the traditional method of placing a cotton swab in the nose.

It takes up to 24 hours, but produces highly accurate results.

There are 150 temporary screening clinics operating for the next three weeks in the metropolitan area, including 56 in Seoul.

Quarantine authorities plan to prevent infection in advance by conducting free tests mainly in university districts where young people are concentrated and places with large floating populations.

Situation in which the proportion of confirmed patients whose route of infection is unknown exceeds 20%.

Quarantine authorities appealed to the nearest temporary screening clinic if there were any suspicious symptoms.
