The number of new corona19 confirmed patients in Korea increased to 400 again.
Today (3) 444 from 0 o’clock.
In four days, the number of the first digits changed.
This is due to a series of group infections in various places, such as the workplaces of foreign workers.
By region, there are many new patients in the metropolitan area.
Yesterday, it was close to 83% of all domestic events per day.
Of course, all other cities and provinces also have confirmed cases, so you shouldn’t feel relieved.
In this situation, vaccination proceeds relatively smoothly.
At 0 o’clock today, more than 87,000 people received injections.
There are 85,000 AstraZeneca vaccines and 1,500 Pfizer vaccines.
No adverse effects of the vaccine were confirmed, but deaths have also occurred after vaccination.
Two patients in a nursing hospital died after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine.
“Serious” adverse reactions, such as headache and general weakness, were also reported for the first time.
They are all people with underlying medical conditions and quarantine authorities are investigating a link to the vaccine.
So let’s look at the major infection cases first.
Yesterday, 15 additional foreigners were confirmed in the Dongducheon area, and the cumulative number of foreigners increased to 96.
Thirteen foreigners were also confirmed at the Yeoncheon Industrial Complex in Gyeonggi-do, raising concerns about group infections.

Please tell us about the confirmed situation in the Dongducheon area.
[기자]The test starts again at 2 pm
There were many people waiting for an exam from an hour ago.
Most are workers and residents of nearby factories.
Here, even Koreans and undocumented foreigners can be screened by anyone with contact information.
Previously, about 70 people were tested here yesterday, and a public health center official believes there will be more than twice as many evaluators today.
15 more were confirmed overnight, and the number of foreigners in the Dongducheon area confirmed since the (first) day increased to 96.
The newly added confirmed cases were confirmed by 11 preventive inspection, 1 overseas inflow, and 3 contacts.
As the number of confirmed cases increased rapidly, Dongducheon City urgently built facilities capable of collecting corona 19 samples at the Dyeing Industrial Complex and Bosan Station.
There will also be a separate screening center for foreign students in the health center.
Quarantine authorities are actively guiding inspection through foreign communities and the industrial complex to quickly find confirmed cases.
However, 13 foreigners were confirmed in the preliminary inspection at the Cheongsan Industrial Complex in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do, and an emergency occurred.
The Ministry of Employment and Labor plans to carry out a large-scale inspection for a month of 11,000 manufacturers with dormitories in workplaces with five or more foreign workers.
Authorities will focus on verifying compliance with quarantine regulations, as well as guiding diagnostic tests to workers in some high-risk workplaces.
[앵커]As the route of infection is unknown, concerns about further spread are likely to increase.
[기자]All of the test subjects the reporters met today were concerned about the infection.
In particular, there were many inquiries from companies where foreign workers work, asking whether the factory should stop when a confirmed case is found.
Quarantine authorities and local governments have yet to complete an epidemiological investigation into the confirmed cases.
The most important thing is the language problem.
Since most of the confirmed cases are foreigners who do not speak Korean, it is said that time is needed for basic epidemiological investigations.
Health authorities are currently investigating 15 epidemiological investigators.
At Gyeonggi-do, five staff members who can perform were also assigned.
First, quarantine authorities are collecting the contents of confirmed patients who have completed the basic epidemiological investigation.
Concerns about the spread are increasing as the main living areas of confirmed patients are identified in other regions such as Namyangju and Yangju, Bucheon and Incheon.
A Dongducheon City official also said that a large number of confirmed cases are coming out in the family unit.
Consequently, in consultation with the Office of Education, the opening of kindergartens and elementary, middle and high schools in the building was postponed until tomorrow.
