According to the headquarters of the Central Quarantine Countermeasures on the 8th, starting at 0 o’clock on the day, 12 new confirmed patients crown19 and 1,822 accumulated confirmed patients. The reporting areas for 12 new confirmers are 3 in Daegu, 2 in Gyeonggi, 2 in Busan, 1 in Chungbuk, and 1 in Jeonbuk, followed by 3 quarantine procedures. © News1 It has been argued that it was a hasty decision to convert “social distance” to “distance in life (defense system)” after the collective infection of the new infectious disease by coronavirus (corona19) that occurred at the Itaewon Club in Seoul.
In the future, it is predicted whether or not to “keep a distance in life” will depend on the size of the Itaewon club. As there are precedents for the large-scale expansion of Corona19 in Singapore, which decidedly decided to keep the streets alive ahead of Korea, the authorities are in a state of tension.
◇ Singaporean and Korean migrant workers are entertainment facilities … Even if you’re careful, it’s still quiet.
Quarantine authorities carefully reviewed and reflected the case of Singapore whenever they made important decisions, such as opening a school or putting distance in their lives (prevention system).
Previously, the Singapore government announced on March 23 that it would return to school and return to everyday life. However, two days later, on March 25, a kindergarten erupted from the start, including a group infection. Furthermore, the infection of the corona19 group focused on the accommodation of migrant workers and even control became difficult. According to Singapore media, including the Straits Times, more than 300,000 local migrant workers live in dozens of dormitories, and their facilities are tight and dense. It is an environment prone to collective infection.
On day 6, the cumulative number of corona19 in Singapore was 2,198, exceeding 20,000. Considering that Singapore’s total population is approximately 5.84 million, it is large. The cumulative number of confirmed patients is more than double that of Korea, which has a population of approximately 51 million.
If Singapore suffered the spread of Corona19, primarily for migrant workers, Korea has become a high-risk facility where metropolitan entertainment facilities could cause a second wave of infection.
According to the Central Defense Countermeasures Headquarters and Yongin City on the 9th, Yongin 66 confirmed that a super preacher (29 · M) visited three Itaewon clubs from 11:00 p.m. on the night of 1 to 4:40 p.m. in the morning of the 2.. After 2 nights, symptoms such as fever appeared.
The total number of visitors to the three clubs visited by Yongin 66 is 1,500. Although some of them are categorized as contacts, actual exposure is expected to decrease, but there is concern about the massive epidemic in which club visitors, including the Yongin 66 dealer, do not wear masks and are not sealed and even vented. There are at least 18 confirmed patients, including 66 Yongin patients.
Jung Eun-kyung, deputy director of the Central Defense Countermeasures Division, said: “We are conducting an epidemiological investigation while looking at the date or line of the outbreak,” and said, “We hope the size of the contact is substantial.”
◇ When transitioning to social distance … Key to the number of patients in the quarantine network
In the case of the Itaewon Club group infection that occurred two days after changing to life on the street, there are no one or two painful elements. Above all, there was a hole in the government quarantine network in the last two days during the period of social distance. It also raises concerns that infectious disease experts have met the criteria for the metropolitan area and entertainment facilities, which have been repeatedly warned.
Quarantine authorities also have an unpredictable atmosphere. Professor Kim Woo-joo, professor of infectious medicine at Koro Hospital, said: “Corona 19 finally succeeded or failed in the metropolitan area.
Given the circumstances, the opinion that the streets in life should be changed to social streets is gradually increasing. If the spread of the Itaewon Club continues to spread, and the number of daily diagnoses is 50 or more, and the rate of not knowing the path of infection exceeds 5%, the justification for keeping a distance in life weakens. It is also a burden on the government to create negative public opinion about the school’s decision to end after a spin.
As a result, the quarantine authorities held an emergency videoconference on the 8th, with the participation of the relevant ministries and the heads of 17 metropolitan and provincial regions. After the meeting, the quarantine authorities advised to refrain from operating the club for 1 month starting at 8 pm on the 8th and issued an administrative order in compliance with the quarantine guidelines.
Quarantine authorities are currently drawing some opinion lines to resume social distance. However, if the proportion of diagnosed people who do not know the path of infection continues to increase, it is very likely that this decision will also change.
“In evaluating the risk ((Corona 19), we are not just judging with the total number of confirmed people,” said Eun-Kyung Chung, head of the Central Defense Response Headquarters.
