47 soldiers are reported to have visited the Itaewon Entertainment District in the past two days since Crown 19 confirmed the visit to the Itaewon Club in Seoul.
According to 11 military officials, 47 soldiers were reported from 26 to 6 this month, according to instructions from the Defense Ministry to voluntarily inform soldiers that they used entertainment facilities near Itaewon. The number of trained soldiers is the highest with approximately 30, and the rest are executives and soldiers.
The military are said to have quarantined them and performed a gene amplification test (PCR) to verify corona infection19.
Previously, Captain A of the Armed Forces Cyber Operations Command and Captain B of Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, were infected with Corona 19 after visiting the Itaewon Club, where he was ‘Yongin 66 confirmed’. Two contacts with Sergeant A and Captain B were also confirmed.
The Ministry of National Defense issued voluntary reporting guidelines for all soldiers, including apprentices, as the number of infected people related to the Itaewon entertainment facilities increased.
As the number of soldiers who visited Itaewon is close to 50, and concerns about secondary infections have increased in society, some have raised the need to control the holidays.
In response to this, an official from the Ministry of National Defense said: “As for the troops without soldiers confirmed by the Crown 19, we are on vacation regularly.”
Currently, holiday control measures have been imposed on the Army Cyber Command and the Army’s direct military units in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do.
The Ministry of National Defense will decide whether to increase the period to control the unit after monitoring the situation by monitoring the holidays for approximately two weeks for the unit where the confirmed person has occurred.
The Ministry of National Defense has been in charge of the military service license since day 8 in line with the government’s transition to “keep a distance in life.” However, overnight stays and visits will be carried out in stages in the future, taking into account the appearance of crown-confirmed cases19 in the military and the trend of social infection.
The executives, who had been restricted in the meantime, came out normally.
It was noted that some executives violated guidelines to prohibit visits to multi-dense facilities after work, and that there was a need to strengthen control of leaving after work. Yonhap News
