The number of new confirmed corona 19 cases amounted to 46, including 1.30 domestic outbreaks and 16 foreign entries.

The cumulative number of confirmed cases increased to 58,725.

The number of new confirmed cases rose to 1,241 and 1,132 on the 25 and 26 of the Christmas holidays and fell below 1,000 on the 27 and 28 for two consecutive days.

However, as the temporary effect of the drastic reduction in the number of tests during the Christmas season weakened, the number of new confirmed cases again surpassed 1,000 in three days.

The fact that the rate of unknown routes of infection is high, which deepens the concerns of the quarantine authorities.

Of the newly confirmed patients in the past two weeks, about 28% of cases are investigating the route of infection.

Quarantine authorities are also concerned about this.

Mutant British foot virus infection is not spreading further.

The test results of 12 crew members and 5 passengers who came into contact with three family members who were confirmed to have a mutant UK virus were all confirmed negative.

Kwon Joon-wook, head of the squad’s 2nd division, diagnosed that it is true that the response to Corona 19 has become increasingly difficult because the mutation that recently appeared in the UK and other countries will one day lead the global outbreak.

The quarantine authorities mentioned that it is a positive factor, however, that the medical response system is maintained and the development of domestic treatments is envisioned.

Furthermore, the number of new occurrences in multipurpose workplaces and facilities is decreasing, and the reproduction rate is also decreasing. This is proof that distancing at a distance is beginning to take effect, and is the result of people’s sacrifice and unity.
