The hospital infection continues. Is Gongju Nursing Hospital considering quarantine in the same group as a group infection?
[기자]Yes it is.
At the Purme Nursing Hospital in Gongju, South Chungcheong Province, two people, including a nurse and a nursing assistant, were confirmed for Corona 19 on Friday.
As a result of testing about 210 patients, including 180 patients and staff, the number of confirmed cases rose to 16, including hospital officials and patients.
The age group of infected patients is mainly older than 70 years and suffers from underlying diseases.
Quarantine authorities are considering quarantine in the same group, the so-called cohort quarantine, where patients and medical staff are isolated together.
We are currently considering converting a two-person room to a one-person room and moving to another facility if there are not enough beds.
Three of the confirmed patients in nursing hospitals were transferred to other hospitals at his request.
Gongju City noted problems in the hospital environment, such as an enclosed space without ventilation facilities in the waiting area for nurses.
An acquaintance of a nursing assistant suffering from Corona 19 was also confirmed.
He is believed to live in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, raising concerns about the spread of infections related to nursing hospitals to other regions.
The number of confirmed cases related to group infection at Wonkwang University Hospital in Iksan, Jeollabuk-do, increased by 3 overnight to 43.
One of them passed away yesterday due to worsening pneumonia symptoms during treatment.
In Gwangju and Jeonnam, there were 22 new confirmed patients yesterday.
At Gwangju Chonnam National University Hospital, the entire hospital room in the first main office building where a large number of confirmed cases were found is in the same group or cohort, quarantined.
Yesterday, eight confirmed hospital-related patients were added, including six inmates at Gwangju Prison.
[앵커]In Busan and Ulsan, is the number of confirmed cases increased through musical gatherings?
[기자]Yes it is.
11 more people were confirmed at the music practice room in Choeup-dong, Busan, where the outbreak of the COVID-19 infection was confirmed.
As of yesterday, 19 people, including 16 users and 3 contacts, had Corona 19.
More than 10 confirmed cases were added overnight and the cumulative number of confirmed cases increased to 30.
The basement music room was where Janggu’s classes and meetings were held.
It was found that it was a poorly ventilated place and that users were not wearing masks properly.
Also, a user from the practice room participated in the Janggu group leader test held in Ulsan on the 20th.
Among those who participated, there is growing concern about the spread of additional confirmations.
Quarantine authorities are tense as a confirmed person may appear among users who have not yet come out with test results and contacts under investigation.
There are also cases of confirmed cases related to the Asan Sunmoon University meeting, where the first confirmed cases were published on the 19th.
Corona 19 is spreading through picnics on the beach and dorm rooms on the weekends.
Patients have been occurring steadily, and 25 have been confirmed so far.
Furthermore, it was confirmed that 18 of the 22 people who went to Jeju for 3 days and 2 nights in the bank book council training in Gyeongnam were confirmed overnight.
Also, as corona 19 infection has occurred through several small groups, the government urges refraining from meetings.
[앵커]Are you worried about the expansion of prisons and military units?
[기자]Yes, prisons and military units are places of concern for group infection and spread due to the nature of the large number of people living together.
The Gwangju Prison infection is spread to prison guards, family members, and prisoners.
As mentioned above, six more inmates were confirmed yesterday.
Epidemiological investigations are ongoing because the infection is presumed to have spread within the prison in the process of contacting prison staff who came to Chonnam National University Hospital for the management of recently hospitalized prisoners.
With the recent outbreak of outbreaks, full-scale testing begins yesterday and ends until tomorrow.
165 people, including about 30 employees and 120 prisoners, have been quarantined inside Gwangju Prison.
It is the second time since a prison case in Gimcheon, Gyeongbuk in March that an inmate has been infected.
The military unit in Cheorwon, Gangwon-do, has been confirmed so far, and there are also 44 confirmed cases in the Seosan Air Force.
So far, the national department has complied.
