In a month, the fifth full Corona 19 test was conducted at the East Detention Center in Seoul, where the scale of infection was close to 1,000 people. Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun personally conducted on-site quarantine inspections, noted that the initial action was insufficient, and called for thorough management. Reporter Jung Hyun-woo’s report. Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun, who visited the Eastern Detention Center in Seoul, said it was very regrettable that the initial response was insufficient after the first confirmation. If we had responded quickly, the infection would not have increased to 900 people. He said it was a very serious situation and asked to strengthen quarantine measures. Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae, who posted an apology on social media for the infection at the detention center, also accompanied the on-site inspection. The Ministry of Justice conducted the fifth complete test on more than 1,000 employees and prisoners who were judged negative in the last test. The number of confirmed cases related to the East Detention Center so far was 958. Thirteen additional inmates who did not show any results on the fourth total test were positive. When the results of the fifth test are added, the possibility of more than a thousand people is raised. Taking into account the incubation period of the virus, quarantine authorities plan to continue testing for Corona 19 at correctional facilities across the country, including where prisoners from the Eastern Detention Center were transferred. In addition, although it is necessary to restrict interviews with lawyers regarding quarantine, we are also considering minimizing the restrictions to guarantee basic rights.
