The number of new COVID-19 patients has once again reached 300. It seems that this increase will continue until the distancing effect appears. In the metropolitan area, where the majority of confirmed cases are concentrated, there is growing concern about the shortage of hospital beds. This is reporter Hyungwon Lee. The number of confirmed cases, which had slowed one day, rose again to 300. 349 new patients and 320 domestic outbreaks excluding foreign entries, almost 70% came from the metropolitan area. The increase is expected to continue this week. As a result of this trend, there is growing concern about the shortage of beds for critically ill patients in the metropolitan area. The National Medical Center predicted that critically ill beds in the metropolitan area would be filled within a week based on the recent two-week outbreak of patients. In addition to these completely empty beds, even if the number of beds available to all patients is included, if the current spread continues, critically ill beds in the metropolitan area will be full in two weeks. In addition to securing additional beds, they noted that in the long term, hospital treatment guidelines should be implemented to reduce bed load. Quarantine authorities also agreed to the need, saying that guidelines such as self-treatment standards have been developed internally. On the issue of bedside medical personnel, the government noted that it is in a rush to train staff.
