It’s the first day the temporary screening clinic opened. Did you find a lot of people?

The place where I’m out is a temporary clinic in the parking lot of the sports hall.

It starts operating today at 10 am and the inspection will end soon.

It has been determined that more than 90 inspectors have visited so far.

Most of them were not subjects of epidemiological investigations, but they came because they wanted to be tested.

Starting today, anyone who is not subject to epidemiological investigations related to confirmed patients or who do not have symptoms can receive diagnostic tests at this temporary screening clinic free of charge.

This is to implement a full-scale preventive inspection in response to the spread of Corona 19 in accordance with government policy.

There are 3 temporary screening clinics in Dongjak-gu, including the Heukseok Sports Center and the Sadang Cultural Center.

More than 140 employees and 10 officials, including the Seoul Metropolitan Government, police, and soldiers, are involved in clinical and epidemiological investigations.

Existing public health center screening clinics run until 9 pm on weekdays.

Temporary screening clinics are built in 150 metropolitan areas centered on subway stations with large floating populations, major university districts, and areas where group infections occur.

In Seoul, 21 locations, including Tapgol Park, Seoul Station Plaza, and Gangnam Station Exit 9, opened first today, and 56 are scheduled to open in the future.

More than 800 support personnel, including military, police and probationary officers, are deployed here.

It is scheduled to operate for the next three weeks through January 3 of next year, and is open on weekends and holidays.

To prevent testing from being bypassed, an anonymous method is also performed where only a phone number is provided.

In addition to the PCR test in which a cotton swab is placed in the nose, a saliva test and a rapid antigen test are also recently introduced that can confirm the result in 30 minutes.

However, the quarantine authorities recommend the PCR method with the highest precision among them.

It has become important to find confirmed asymptomatic patients early, now called ‘silent preachers’.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government also repeatedly requested a self-examination.

Active participation is required to slow the spread of the third pandemic.
