First, tell us the situation of Corona 19 by region.

The number of patients related to the Administrative Welfare Center in Busa-dong, Daejeon, where the first confirmed yesterday was confirmed, has risen to eight.

Wellness assistants were first confirmed to act as administrative assistants, and after that, wellness center staff and family members tested positive one after another.

A confirmed person came out to the inauguration event of the President of Preservation of Busa Chilseok, where he was the first confirmed person.

In Gwangju, where church-related group infections have risen rapidly, face-to-face worship is banned until the 10th.

In the midst of this, a church in Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, was caught holding a service in person.

At 8 pm yesterday it was found that a face-to-face service was held with about 40 members present.

Many of these people left the church after being caught.

Quarantine authorities will accuse the church official of violating the Infectious Disease Prevention Act.

This church was accused of having a face-to-face worship service in December of last year for violating quarantine guidelines.

We will also look at the situation in Busan. The GR group virus was confirmed in a confirmed person in the port of Gamcheon. What does that mean?

[기자]

The city of Busan requested a genetic study of 5 of 50 confirmed cases of cluster infection in the port of Gamcheon.

Of these, GR virus was detected in 4 cases and GH virus in 1 case.

Currently, the virus currently prevalent in Korea, such as Busan, is mainly the GH virus.

Therefore, it is very likely that the recent massive infection in Busan ports, such as the port of Gamcheon, was caused by the influx of Russian sailors and other foreign countries.

Quarantine authorities plan to further investigate the teams that have recently entered the country to determine the exact route of infection.

The GR virus is known to have a stronger spread than the existing GH virus.

The British mutant virus also belongs to this GR group.

This is the second time that the GR virus has been detected after the case of the crew of the Russian ship Peterwon that arrived at the port of Gamcheon last year.
