As of today (8) 0 o’clock, there are 594 new cases of Corona 19 in Korea.
It’s down to fewer than 600 people in three days since the last 5 days.
However, it is hard to believe that the differential was broken.
This is because the number of tests that were counted yesterday was only half the normal day of the week.
As such, the positive rate, which is the ratio of confirmed cases to the number of tests, was close to 5%.
It is more than four times the cumulative positive rate of 1.2%.
By region, the expansion of the metropolitan area continues to be the most intense.
In Seoul, Gyeonggi and Incheon alone, more than 68% of all domestic outbreaks occurred yesterday.
That does not mean that there is no other place to be comfortable.
Yesterday, there were confirmed cases in all 16 cities and provinces except Sejong.
In a situation in which the embers of the infection are not quenched, the government today announced plans to buy vaccines.
The key is that it has virtually insured up to 44 million people through a multinational alliance with four foreign pharmaceutical companies.
There are 14 million more people than the original project.
It will be introduced in stages from February to March next year, but the timing of vaccination has not yet been decided.
After all, you can’t get the vaccine right away, so it’s important to get through the current crisis long before things get worse.
Then we will connect with reporters to learn more details.
The number of infections at five Hold’em pubs in Yongsan, Seoul, where you can drink while playing cards, rose to 19.
As visitors to the Hold’em Pub, as well as their families, are confirmed, concerns about the umpteenth infection are mounting.

There are still confirmed cases of ‘Hold’em Pub’ in the Yongsan area. What is the atmosphere of the place?
[기자]I’m in a Hold’em pub called ‘Two Pair’ in Itaewon.
Hold’em Pub is an establishment where several people can sit around a table and drink while playing card games such as poker.
The building itself, where the store is located, is closed and there are not many people around.
This is because 19 people, including customers and employees, have been confirmed at five hold’em pubs in Yongsan, Seoul.
A guest visited four Hold’em pubs in the area since the 30th of last month, and it was confirmed on the 4th.
The infected people also left a place that the customer did not visit.
In particular, four families of two pair visitors have been confirmed here, leading to a serial infection.
As a result of an epidemiological investigation, it was confirmed that the majority of Pub Hold’em users stay in the store for a long time, 4-7 hours.
It was found that there were two or three stores that were not used in one store.
Quarantine authorities explained that after obtaining a list of 379 visitors to the store, 114 people have been tested so far.
Additionally, those who visited ‘Western Lounge’, ‘Two Pair’, ‘Dice’, ‘KMGM’ and ‘Gentle Rabbit’ from the 26th to the 4th of last month were asked to undergo a diagnostic test immediately.
While quarantine authorities conducted an epidemiological investigation, they investigated whether there were any violations of quarantine regulations at the store, such as not wearing a mask.
It has been confirmed that some establishments did not follow quarantine rules, such as not having access lists and hand sanitizers, and not separating the auditorium and gaming seats.
After banning the establishments, the Seoul Metropolitan Government plans to verify with the police compliance with quarantine regulations for 38 related establishments.
[앵커]Besides this, do the infections of other groups continue?
[기자]The group infection continues in spaces of daily life such as restaurants and saunas.
The infection rate at ‘Pagoda Town’, a restaurant in Jongno-gu, Seoul, is not serious.
As a result of Seoul City’s tally at 0 o’clock today (8), 22 more were confirmed, and the cumulative number of confirmed cases so far reached 144.
Of these, 133 confirmed cases in Seoul.
An art group performing here was first confirmed on the 28th of last month, and the infection has continued for 10 days.
The infection is spreading in all directions, including not only Pagoda Town visitors, performers or restaurant officials, but also singing classes and acquaintances visited by additional confirmed patients.
At the sauna in Dongjak-gu, Seoul, 27 people have been confirmed so far.
The infection continues to increase in hospitals and nursing homes.
In the Seongdong-gu Department of Otolaryngology, Seoul, the number of related infections rose to 18 after the first confirmed case was published on 29 last month.
Regarding the Felis Nursing Home in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi Province, the cumulative number of confirmed patients so far has reached 31.
The infection is spreading to 15 residents, 9 workers and 3 family members.
