Park Neung-hoo, the first deputy head of the Central Headquarters for Security and Disaster Countermeasures (Minister of Health and Welfare), said in a regular briefing on the 20th: “Alleviating distance (in non-metropolitan areas) is likely to increase only the risk of confusion and spread of epidemics. ” I decided to extend the key. “The second-stage quarantine measures have been implemented nationwide since last month 23.

Although the amount of movement in the non-metropolitan area decreased
In addition, the amount of movement in the non-metropolitan area between the weekends of the last 12-13 decreased by 30.7% (14.3 million cases) compared to before the distance of the second stage (15 August-August 16). The amount of movement was measured with a cell phone base station.
However, the authorities believe that it is not in a position to delay step 2. This is due to the fact that sporadic group infections are occurring in many cities and provinces, and the proportion of patients with unknown routes of infection (28.1% of 6 to 19 days) is high. Minister Park said: “There is a high possibility of latent infections in the community.”
In addition, the occurrence of new patients in the metropolitan area was also considered. The average number of new patients per day in the metropolitan area reaches 91.3 (6-19 days). In addition, according to the Central Headquarters for Disasters and Security Countermeasures, at 0 am on the 20th, 82 new patients with Corona 19 presented double digits for the first time since 13 (56) last month. However, the critical position is that the incidence of patients should be reduced as much as possible before the Chuseok holiday, when a major movement is expected.

In case of violating the quarantine rules, a fine of no more than 3 million won is imposed under the infectious disease prevention method. Additionally, when a confirmed person occurs, compensation for hospitalization / treatment expenses and quarantine expenses can be claimed.
