Private universities also decided to provide dormitories for patients to solve the problem of bed shortages.

Korea University is the first university in the metropolitan area to start operating as a life treatment center.

With the urgent need to secure hospital beds in the metropolitan area, the number of deaths related to nursing hospitals in Bucheon increased by five.

There is a reporter in the dormitory of Korea University that is used as a vital treatment center. Reporter Jung Hyun-woo!

Will the dormitory where reporter Jung is be operated as a life therapy center in the future?

So is. It is a dormitory building that was recently completed and planned to be used by foreign teachers and students.

Starting today, 150 rooms will be used as vital treatment centers for one month.

At the current site, work is in full swing, such as the installation of a screening clinic in front of the building.

Still no patients inside.

The city of Seoul explained that it has not yet been determined when the patients will show up.

In the future, specialists and medical staff will come out to operate the building, but the school has announced that it will focus its efforts on managing traffic lines and other areas to ensure the safety of school members and residents.

Seoul has requested 8 private universities, including Korea University, to provide life treatment centers.

Kyung Hee University said it is possible to use ‘Sehwawon’, a dormitory with a size of 200 rooms, as a life treatment center.

In addition, Yonsei University and the City University have decided to provide dormitories.

Gyeonggi-do plans to secure a dormitory at Gyeonggi University that can accommodate 2,000 people and use it as a life treatment center for patients with mild symptoms.

The quarantine authorities are doing everything possible to secure the beds, as the bed shortage situation is dire.

With the expansion of life treatment centers, etc., the number of patients waiting for more than a day in the metropolitan area was reduced to 248.

However, only 10 beds remain in critical condition in the metropolitan area, which is an emergency.

Among the metropolitan areas, there are no beds available in Gyeonggi-do, one in Incheon and nine in Seoul.

The bed shortage problem seems serious, but do you say that herd infections continue in various places in everyday life?

If it is.

First, mass infections continue, mainly in nursing homes and hospitals.

First, unfortunately, another 5 deaths occurred at the Bucheon City Nursing Hospital, and the cumulative death rate increased to 22.

Of these, 20 but two died while waiting for a dedicated bed.

On the 15th, the number of confirmed cases related to nursing homes in Guro-gu, where the first confirmed cases, increased yesterday by 19 in Seoul alone, topping 120.

After being isolated from the same group, additional confirmed cases continue to emerge among patients and caregivers.

Also, in a Nowon-gu hospital, after a confirmed case came out on the 20th, there were 4 more confirmed today, and the infection scale increased to 24.

Confirmation cases also continue to appear in religious facilities, but at a church in Geumcheon-gu, 8 more church and family members were confirmed.

On the 13th it was investigated that a face-to-face service was carried out with the confirmed person.

Meanwhile, quarantine authorities announced the trend of new outbreaks in the last four weeks.

Workplaces, like workplaces, have also been identified as the epicenter of group infection.

Rectal infections have also more than doubled than three weeks ago.

Quarantine authorities repeatedly emphasized the use of masks at work, ventilation and disinfection, and requested that year-end dinners and gatherings be canceled and that meetings be kept to a minimum to non-face-to-face meetings.
