Kim Tae-nyeon, the leader of the Democratic Party, referred to an article criticizing Korea’s COVID-19 quarantine and said: “Typical behavior of abusive reports.” On the 22nd, Wonnae Kim refuted the content of the article at the Democratic Party’s internal countermeasures meeting on the 22nd, arguing that “I think the media company deliberately created personalized statistics with strange statistics.”
The article criticized by Wonnae Kim said: “The confirmation and death rate of the recent month is higher than that of the US and Brazil … It is an article from the Seoul Economic Daily titled” The K Defense Disgrace. It was reported online on the 21st and through the newspapers on the 22nd. This article compared the new corona 19 confirmed and dead, death rate and confirmed cases per 100,000 in the US, Brazil, France, UK, Japan and China from November 13 to December 21 with Korea. In a table summarizing the rate of increase and decrease, the number of new cases in Korea increased by 385%, the number of deaths by 2300%, and the number of confirmed cases per 100,000 people increased by 80%. Based on this, the newspaper wrote that “before the third pandemic, the world paid attention to the achievements of ‘Defense K’, but in just one month, Korea went from being a model student to a failed student.”
Kim said: “According to these statistics, it is literally a shocking statistic that will end the stigma that Korea is the worst crown-spreading country in the world. But is that really the case? “Is the spread of corona infection in Korea at the worst level in the world right now?”
“As of the 21st, there were more than 400,000 new cases in the United States and 926 in Korea. Today it is under him. As of the 21st, the number of new deaths in the US was 2,747 and 24 in Korea. When I analyzed the content of the statistics to find out why such absurd and ridiculous statistics were written, the death toll in Korea on November 13 was 1, and on December 21 there were 24. Since the death toll has increased by 23 meanwhile, the death rate has risen by 2300%. “” Isn’t that malicious and typical inflation that didn’t even keep the fundamentals of the statistics? “
In addition, “The newspaper reports that the rate of increase in the number of confirmed cases per 100,000 in the same period is 80% in Korea, higher than the US, which is 71%, and is the worst of the world. The number of confirmed cases per 100,000 people increased from 3,076 on November 13 to 5,261 on December 21, and Korea, which increased from 54 to 98 in the same period, is the comparison target. I don’t understand the purpose of ignoring units, just converting them to percentages and just comparing these stats and reporting articles with such stimulating titles. Isn’t this a statistic that the fundamentals are not followed ”, he raised criticism.
“It is difficult to understand whether the purpose of the media is to shake trust between the government and the people by mocking K’s quarantine and stigmatizing the failure of the government’s quarantine,” said Won Nae Kim. “It would be nice if you could tell us about the reports pouring cold water on the government quarantine and creating a gap between the government and the people and the quarantine front,” he said.
Earlier, Democratic Party lawmaker Seong-ju Kim also publicly criticized the article on his personal Facebook account. Rep. Kim captured part of the article and the image of the quoted table, noting that the number of new deaths in Korea has risen by 2300% in the past month in an article titled ‘The K Quarantine Misfortune’ reported on December 21 from the Seoul Economic Daily. (I thought it was 2300). I knew there were not one or two newspapers that I would like to say that the quarantine in Korea has failed, “he added, adding,” I’m tired of finding these things. “
