This year, the collective infection of foreign workers in North Chungcheong Province has continued. Once an outbreak led to a group infection, quarantine authorities decided to conduct a thorough inspection of foreign workers in the area. This is Lee Seong-woo. It is a glass manufacturer located in Eumseong-gun, Chungbuk. A group of foreign workers from this company became infected with Corona 19. At the time of the first outbreak, two foreign workers were diagnosed as confirmed, and as a result of a full examination, infected people emerged hidden. All foreign workers who tested positive this time are known to have lived in the dormitory of this company. While the initial route of infection has not been identified, quarantine authorities estimate that a serial infection occurred as a result of living in a group of dormitories. In North Chungcheong Province, foreign infections are increasing rapidly, starting with a chicken processing company in Chungju on January 26. As of this year, there have been 110 confirmed cases abroad, more than double of all confirmed cases abroad last year. Quarantine authorities analyzed that most of these people lived in groups and were vulnerable to infection when working at workplaces in a closed, dense environment close to a so-called three-pack environment. In addition, there are difficulties in epidemiological investigations since linguistic communication is not fluent due to different nationalities. Consequently, Chungcheongbuk-do has decided to inspect more than 3,700 foreign workers in the region by the 15th. In addition, foreign workers who visited other cities and provinces through an administrative order had to undergo a rapid antigen test within 3 days.
