Church-related group infections across the country were found to be directly related to urban Liberation Day gatherings.
The infection at the foot of the Sarangjeil church, which exceeds 1,000 people, continues to spread and the police are accelerating the investigation.
Reporter Kim Ji-hwan reports.
[기자]The Seoul Gwanghwamun rally held on the 15th Liberation Day.
Since then, the number of confirmed cases increased by double digits every day, and the number of confirmed cases reached almost 400 in 15 days.
In particular, it was confirmed that additional radio waves were produced in 11 locations nationwide and 9 were churches.
There were also several regions such as Gwangju Seonglim Baptist Church, Daegu Sarang Church, and Gangbuk Full Gospel Church in Seoul.
Members who attended the Liberation Day meeting are believed to sparked additional preaching through worship.
Quarantine authorities have repeatedly emphasized that even if the two-week incubation period has passed, the assembly participants must be screened quickly.
[정은경 / 중앙방역대책본부장 : (무증상으로) 교회 또는 각종 다중시설을 통해 전파했을 가능성을 배제할 수 없습니다. 아직은 확진 규모에 영향을 줄 수 있는 불확실성이 남아 있다고 보고 있어서….]The total number of confirmed cases from the First Sarang Church increased to 1,056.
In just 19 days after the first confirmed cases, nearly 1,000 people have exploded.
Among them, 980 people came out only in the metropolitan area, and 70 people were confirmed in the non-metropolitan area.
The spread is still omnidirectional.
[정은경 / 중앙방역대책본부장 : 추가전파가 발생한 장소가 25개소로서 총 159명이 접촉자 조사 중에 확진이 되었고 추가적인 조사가 진행 중에 있습니다.]There are still church members who refuse to be tested or are not accessible, so it is likely to spread further.
Police are investigating allegations of interfering with the Sarangjeil church quarantine.
The list of members is sent to the Central Accident Control Center and the seized material is analyzed to verify if any members are missing.
Regarding the Liberation Day rally, we accelerated the investigation by requesting the assistance of 4 people, including the organizer who held the illegal rally, and identifying 155 of the 157 people requested by the quarantine authorities to verify their whereabouts.
