New confirmed corona19 cases registered triple digits for two consecutive days. The national outbreak, which was a double-digit number for four days in a row, has risen to 100 in five days. At Park Ae-won, a mental health center with 39 confirmed cases, there is growing concern about the emergence of additional patients. Reporter Yeojin Lee reports. After the first confirmed cases came out on the 15th, 10 more were confirmed at Park Ae-won, a mental care center in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, where a group infection occurred, resulting in a total of 39 cases. Earlier on the 18th, the city of Goyang used the third-floor gym in the building to distribute the residents on the third floor in cohort quarantine, but almost every day additional confirmed cases come out on the third floor. It is an analysis that the characteristics of patients who cannot use the masks well have been added to the structure that allows multiple patients with mental illness to remain in a hospital room. All 56 people lived on the third floor, where the majority of confirmed cases occurred, so there is concern for further confirmation. It is reminiscent of the case at Daenam Hospital in Cheongdo, Gyeongbuk, where a group infection of 120 people occurred. At 0:00 on the 24th, there were 125 new, triple-digit cases for two consecutive days. The number of new confirmed cases in Korea was 109, registering three digits in five days. Among them, 92 people occurred in the metropolitan area, representing the majority. The government will announce tomorrow detailed social distancing measures, which will apply during Chuseok’s special quarantine period from September 28 to October 11. Tae-ho Yoon, head of the Accident Control Headquarters, said that taking into account the characteristics of the Chuseok holiday, the areas to be strengthened will be strengthened and the strict areas will be adjusted.
