The number of new confirmed cases, which temporarily dropped to 700 for holidays, etc., reached 900 again.
880 people occurred one day yesterday (14), and 162 people increased from the previous day.
As the number of tests nearly doubled compared to Sunday, it appears that more confirmed cases were hidden.
The problem is that this expansion trend could continue for the time being.
Since there are cases of confirmed cases popping up everywhere, regardless of region or group, it can break the record of 1,030.
It means that you may not have passed the top yet.
[정은경 / 질병관리청장(어제) : 환자 수를 추계해보면 ‘950명~1,200명’ 사이의 환자가 발생할 것으로 예측을 하고 있습니다.]As far as quarantine authorities are concerned, if the number of confirmed cases increases in the future, the possibility of a third-level update will inevitably increase.
In fact, the average local outbreaks in the last week was 774.4 per day.
It is under the chin of 800 people, which is the ascending standard of three levels.
The government remains cautious for fear of enormous economic damage, but the moment of decision is slowly approaching.
Of course, if the expansion trend breaks, you can save the last stronghold.
But yesterday, there are still no signs of improvement, with confirmed cases showing up in all 17 cities and provinces.
In particular, the situation is serious in the metropolitan area, where new patients have presented themselves, representing almost 70% of domestic incidents.
If it does not calm down here, it will be difficult to overcome the third pandemic.
So, let’s take a closer look at the Corona 19 situation in the metropolitan area.
At Seongseok Church in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, the cumulative number of confirmed cases reached 170 within a week after the first confirmed cases came out.
It is literally an emergency, as group infections that started in everyday life spaces like restaurants also broke out everywhere.
Connect with reporters on the scene. Reporter Shin Joon-myeong!
First of all, please tell us about the group infection situation in the church.
[기자]Yes, the number of cumulative confirmed cases related to this church was 168, except for the first confirmed cases that occurred on the 6th, the city of Seoul has identified at 0:00 today.
It is very likely to increase across the country, but the church, which has over a thousand registered members, holds a weekly revival meeting and has been practicing the choir.
This church held revival meetings four times a week for 7 weeks from mid-October to the 3rd of this month.
About 100 people were reported to have attended the revival meeting, which lasted from an hour to an hour and a half.
The place where the revival meeting was held was a 400-person chapel, and ventilation was found to be difficult because only two windows 60 cm wide and 40 cm long could be opened.
The choir practice room was also found to have a structure that is difficult to ventilate due to the small windows.
Furthermore, quarantine authorities believe that the cup noodles and tea were placed at the time of the practice, so it is highly likely that church members will remove their masks and eat together.
The 10 additional cases confirmed in Seoul yesterday were 7 members of the congregation, 2 co-workers from the congregation, and 1 member of the family of this co-worker. Additional confirmed cases are expected to increase further.
The city of Seoul obtained an additional list of church members and conducted tests, but said an additional confirmed person has been produced and is investigating the route of infection.
[앵커]I am more concerned that group infections are occurring not only in the church but also in the metropolitan area.
[기자]So is. Of the additional confirmed cases identified during yesterday’s session, 65% are concentrated in the metropolitan area.
Group infections continue to occur in spaces of daily life such as restaurants, workplaces, and nursing hospitals.
In Seoul, a new outbreak case was identified today.
At the construction site in Yongsan-gu, the number of confirmed cases increased by 12 yesterday alone to 15, and the number of confirmed cases related to the Songpa-gu correctional facility was 22, including 4 yesterday.
First, there have been 280 confirmed cases related to restaurants in Jongno-gu, Seoul.
The number of confirmed cases continues to rise as the infection that started here spreads to singing classes and nursing homes in Suwon.
In connection with the call center in Jung-gu, Seoul, 21 people were confirmed and it is estimated that there has been further spread to the church the confirmed person is attending.
At the Pocheon-si prayer center, Gyeonggi-do, where the first confirmed cases occurred on the 11th, the cumulative number of confirmed cases rose to 34.
The spread of infection in hospitals and nursing hospitals with many older people with weak immunity is even more serious.
There were 58 confirmed cases related to Wisdom Hospital in Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul, and 72 cases were confirmed at Hyoplus Nursing Hospital in Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi-do.
In a nursing home in Siheung, Gyeonggi province, after the first confirmed person left on the 12th, 17 more have been infected so far in the contact person investigation process.
In most cases, the massive infection occurred in a space called 3-mild, where a large number of people concentrated in a closed space and had close contact within 1 m.
There were also cases where a mask was not used in that space.
Now that even the route is unknown, asymptomatic and latent infections are spreading throughout everyday life, so it is more important to follow daily quarantine, such as wearing a mask, without worrying about meetings with relatives, acquaintances and colleagues.
