Reorganized ‘Three Steps Away’ Announced Today … Halloween Wreath Spread

Entry 2020.11.01 09:18 | Revision 2020.11.01 09:20

In preparation for the prolonged coronavirus (Corona 19) infection in Korea, the government will reorganize and announce the ‘Three Steps of Social Distancing’ system on Day 1. As Halloween Day passes (October 31), it is expected that next week will be an obstacle in determining whether the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) in Korea has spread.

The Central Defense Countermeasures Headquarters (Bang Dae-bon) officially announces a plan to reorganize distances this afternoon. It is observed if the three existing stages will be further subdivided and the response system for each region, such as the metropolitan area and the non-capital area, will be different.

It is interpreted that the current distancing system is based on the fact that the difference in the intensity of the quarantine between the first and third stages is great and the economic and social damage is great. The government has also applied the 1.5 and 2.5 stage systems flexibly.

Meanwhile, the government has avoided extreme measures such as ‘upper facility operation’, such as applying step 1.5, which prohibits harvesting if the risk actually increases while implementing the second distance step between Seoul and the Gyeonggi area. The focus has been on leading.

In a subsequent briefing on the 13th, Son Young-rae, Head of the Strategic Planning Division (Spokesperson for the Ministry of Health and Welfare) said: “We are thinking of ways to enable people to take responsibility for themselves and maintain their own quarantine regulations. ” Taking extreme measures such as closure has less social acceptance.

In addition, the government plans to review the Corona 19 medical response system in conjunction with reorganizing the remote system. Consequently, the appropriate medical system for each stage of distancing is expected to change.

It is also a variable to what extent group infections will spread after Halloween Day is over. According to Bang Dae-bon, a total of 277 people, including 139 in Seoul, 59 in Gyeonggi, and 54 in Incheon, were confirmed from the Itaewon club.

Clubs and other entertainment facilities are dense, gated and closed, so if there is a single person infected with the corona virus, the virus spreads easily. In particular, the quarantine authorities have called for special attention that indoor ventilation facilities also become “propagation passages”.

As a result, major clubs such as Itaewon in Seoul, Gangnam, Hongdae, and Seomyeon in Busan have voluntarily ceased operations, but in fact, young people flock to pubs and hunting pots that function as clubs, and the spread of the feet of Halloween is a concern.

Therefore, as the number of new confirmed cases to be announced this morning is also expected to exceed 100, it is noteworthy whether a “quarantine crisis” will occur ahead of the winter season.
