The government’s ban on private meetings with more than 5 people, which has applied only to the metropolitan area, has been extended to the entire country. This is because sporadic chain infections involving churches and the like continue. Let’s find out by connecting the national department. Reporter Jihwan! First, will we see the situation at the national level? Is the church-linked infection continuing across the country? It is a Christian missionary corporation, a missionary group. There are still cases of cases related to intercop. In Ulsan, last night there were 8 more confirmed cases and the cumulative number of patients increased to 106. In November and December, they are believed to have visited the Sangju BTJ World Center, a religious facility, or participated in the Intercorp event held at the Ulsan Church. The number of confirmed cases is increasing as church members return to their respective churches and hold meetings. The same is true for the Chungcheong area, and 20 confirmed patients occurred in two churches in Chungju during the two days of the New Year. Quarantine authorities believe he is related to the BTJ Sangju World Center. In particular, there are many adolescents among the confirmed cases, and since many students communicated with them through homeschooling or after-school activities, there is concern of increased infection. Gangwon and Wonju are also churches. Yesterday, Wonju, Gangwon, held an emergency press conference and announced that it would close a church where the outbreak had occurred. The church held an in-person service on the 20th and 23rd of last month that was attended by hundreds of people. Serial infections occur in day care centers attended by the children of church members and more than 20 confirmed patients. Wonju, who closed the church, is also reviewing the refund requests. Also, group infections in nursing hospitals reoccurred in the metropolitan city of Gwangju. It is the Hyojeong Nursing Hospital in Gwangsan-gu. All sixty-five patients were confirmed, including 53 patients and 7 workers. A related briefing is scheduled in Gwangju this afternoon. Yesterday, the government extended the ban on gatherings of five or more people across the country. How is the reaction? Yesterday there was an announcement from the government. The special quarantine period, originally scheduled to end today, will run until the 17th. Excluding the metropolitan area, the second stage measures are basically followed at the national level, and many local governments, such as Busan, continue with the strengthened 2.5-stage measures, such as the metropolitan area. In addition, all private gatherings of five or more people are prohibited throughout the country. The measures that were applied only to the metropolitan area were expanded to the national level. As mentioned above, this is a measure that takes into account that the spread of the infection chain nationwide does not relent. Of course, not all quarantine measures have been enforced in all industries. There are also places that have relaxed. Typical are facilities for winter sports, such as ski resorts, snow toboggan runs and ice rink. Last month, after an infection with part-time workers and a serial infection with residents of the Daegwallyeong area in Pyeongchang’s Yongpyeong Ski Resort, the government stopped operating ski resorts entirely despite backlash from the industry. After the high season during the end of the year and New Year holidays, it will resume its activities starting tomorrow. However, the total occupancy is limited to one third and the door closes after 9pm Also, no additional facilities such as restaurants, cafes and game rooms can be operated, with the exception of equipment rental facilities and changing rooms.
