Reporter Seung-Hoon Lee! The number of new confirmed cases is said to have been in the 400 range by the second day. At 0 o’clock today, there were 438 new cases per day. The total number of new patients decreased compared to the previous day, but only the domestic outbreaks were similar.

By region, more than half occurred in the metropolitan area, including 158 in Seoul, 69 in Gyeonggi, and 34 in Incheon.

There are 76 patients with severe stomach problems.

Quarantine authorities believe that the third outbreak is likely to continue in the current situation. Therefore, in the case of young adults, even if they do not present symptoms, if there is a suspicious situation, they are emphasizing that they should go to a nearby screening clinic and undergo active diagnostic tests.
