In Busan, group infections happened in various places, such as the common fish market and the port of Gamcheon, right?

[기자]

Yes, let’s first summarize the situation in the Busan joint fish market.

Quarantine authorities are investigating more than 1,500 people, including members of the joint fish market and temporary members.

More than 30% of Korean coastal marine products are distributed in this market.

As it is a busy place, it is said that it is not easy to keep your distance, such as sorting and ordering fish in a dense space or sharing a small room with a group.

As there were many confirmed cases and self-quarantine, the joint fish market once had a disruption in operations, such as the suspension of auctions.

Additional confirmed cases were also found in the nearby port of Gamcheon.

As a result of the inspection of some 300 people, including members of the port transport union who are carrying out unloading operations, the cumulative number of confirmed cases at the Gamcheon port was 16, including 11 employees and 5 contacts.

Quarantine authorities are conducting epidemiological investigations to determine the link between the common fish market and the Gamcheon port outbreak.

Additionally, at Samyuk Busan Hospital in Seo-gu, Busan, where a group infection was previously confirmed, two acquaintances who ate with a previously confirmed guardian and a hospitalized patient were infected.

Including two families of confirmed employees residing in Ulsan, there are a total of 17 confirmed cases.

Do the feet of the sauna also extend in Ulsan?

[기자]

Yes it is.

The route of infection varies, including not only visitors to the sauna, but also customers who used the convenience stores in the same building and the infection cases of other confirmed patients.

Since the first confirmed case was published on the 7th, 48 people have been confirmed so far.

The problem is that the spread of the sauna foot has spread to schools that have just opened.

Among the confirmed cases of sauna standing, eight students and an attentive instructor were included.

There were confirmed cases from 9 schools, of which 7 are in Buk-gu with saunas.

Consequently, the Ulsan City Office of Education converted 6 of the 9 schools with confirmed cases into full distance classes.

In the remaining three, only a few grades entered remote classes.
