On the afternoon of the 29th, four days before the 2021 College Academic Aptitude Test, a separate testing room will be released for examinees who are in isolation at Osan High School in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. Photographic reporters of the Blue House
Although the number of new confirmed corona19 cases is increasing from 400 to 500 each day, the reason the government maintained social distancing in the metropolitan area in the second stage is because it was concerned about economic damage and national fatigue from the 2.5 stage upgrade. Approximately 20% of patients older than 60 years or older are asymptomatic and asymptomatic, and the proportion of younger patients is high. However, the government plans to curb the outbreak by tightening quarantine measures in spaces where group infections have occurred in the metropolitan area or where young people are likely to gather. According to the summary of the Central Headquarters for Disasters and Security Countermeasures on the 29th, the average number of confirmed patients per day during the last week (23-29 November) reached 416. It is at the beginning of the national standard of 2.5 stages ( more than 400 to 500 people across the country). However, the heavy script saw that it is difficult to win the sympathy of the public when considering the socioeconomic damages to quickly raise the distance. According to the measures of the second stage in the metropolitan area, which began on the 24th, there are 600,000 facilities that are interrupting their operations. If step 2.5 is implemented, the harm to the self-employed will inevitably increase. The script also read: “Based on the August experience, the effect of strengthening the distance generally starts to show 10-14 days after implementation. It is expected that the effect of the improvement of 1.5 steps in the metropolitan area will be exerted in the middle of this week, and the effect of a second step is expected to be from the beginning of next week ”. When analyzing the composition of the new confirmed patients by age, it is also explained that the proportion of elderly patients, which can lead to serious illness, is not yet high. Instead, the main script is “ tweezers quarantine, ” which stops the operation of saunas and steam rooms in public baths where large-scale group infections occurred in the metropolitan area, indoor sports facilities for vigorous group movements (such as GX ), wind instruments and singing classrooms, and complex convenience facilities in apartment complexes. He decided to strengthen. Events and parties during the end of the year and New Year holidays organized by accommodation facilities such as hotels, guest houses, rural houses and party halls are also prohibited. This is a measure to block youth gatherings. However, it is difficult to mobilize administrative power for parties hosted by individuals, and there is a risk of blind spots as some facilities register as a service business rather than accommodation facilities and provide space for parties. The government said: “We will consider additional measures through discussions between related ministries.”

Also, in Gyeongbuk (6.6) and Jeju (1.7), the average number of confirmed cases per day for a week is still below the standard level of 1.5, but it was decided to upgrade all non-metropolitan areas to levels of 1.5. This is because radio waves focused on the metropolitan area are gradually moving towards the non-metropolitan area. Consequently, measures such as the prohibition of dancing in entertainment facilities, the obligation to keep restaurants and cafes away, the prohibition of eating in singing practice centers and indoor sports facilities, and the prohibition of indoor sports facilities will be implemented. meetings of more than 100 people in areas outside the capital. In the future, entertainment facilities will be banned in Busan, Gangwon Yeongseo, Gyeongnam, Chungnam, Jeonbuk, etc., which will promote the second stage of upgrade at the local government level, and only restaurant packaging and delivery will be allowed after 9 p.m. Coffees can only be packed and delivered throughout the day, and singing practice areas and covered sports facilities must be closed after 9 p.m. Also, even in non-metropolitan areas where the step is implemented 1.5, the quarantine rules of the second step, such as prohibiting the intake of food in saunas, etc., should be additionally followed, and if an improved area comes out to step 2, reinforcement measures such as suspension of the sauna operation will be implemented, as in the metropolitan area. The script will review more updates across the country if the patient growth trend does not reverse this week. Nationally, there are 700,000 non-metropolitan facilities that are prohibited from meeting when upgrading to the second stage or require restrictions on hours of operation and personnel.
