After four days, the number of new confirmed cases registered three digits, and in 17 days, the cumulative number of confirmed cases exceeded 1,000.
The number of additional preaching cases who are not members of the church or visitors to the church is approximately 340, or 33% of the total.
It has already spread to 25 other churches and nursing homes, and 154 people have been serially infected.
An additional confirmed person came out at the downtown Liberation Day meeting, where some epidemiological links with the First Sarang Church were confirmed.
Every day, the number increased by double digits and the first confirmed cases surpassed 300 in about 10 days.
