Following the outbreak of outbreaks across the country, the number of new corona19 patients exceeded 200 for two consecutive days.

The government believes that if it is the current trend, social distancing, which is currently the first step, should be raised to 1.5 steps, and issued a preliminary warning to increase the distance between the metropolitan area and Gangwon-do.

First, tell us the current status of Corona 19.

[기자]

As of today at 0 o’clock, the number of new confirmed corona 19 cases is 208, an increase of 3 from the previous day.

Represents three digits for eight consecutive days and 200 people for two consecutive days.

This is the level in early September, when infections occurred following the Gwanghwamun demonstration on 15 August.

On holidays, the number of tests for COVID-19 decreases.

Still, the fact that there are more than 200 new confirmed cases is that Corona 19 spread is like this.

Of the 208 new confirmed cases, 176 are national and 32 are from abroad.

The greatest increase in patients occurs in the metropolitan area.

124 people were added from the Elderly Care Center in Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul, Yeoksam Station in Gangnam-gu, medical institutions in Gunpo-si, Gyeonggi-do, and nursing facilities in Anyang-si.

Next is Gangwon-do, where 19 people were trained.

Infections continue in Cheorwon nursing homes for the disabled and acquaintances in Inje-gun.

Additionally, infections are occurring simultaneously in nursing homes, hospitals, workplaces, and military units across the country, such as Chungnam and Gwangju.

Currently, social distancing is in an early stage, but the government issued a preliminary distancing warning in the metropolitan area and Gangwon-do?

Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun said that at 3 p.m. at the Disaster and Security Countermeasures Headquarters meeting, both meetings will issue a preliminary warning to increase social distancing in the metropolitan area and Gangwon province.

If the infection spreads like the current trend, we will increase our distance from stage 1 to stage 1.5.

In fact, in the case of the metropolitan area, the number of new confirmed corona19 cases per day averages 89.9, approaching 100, which is the standard of 1.5 steps.

In Gangwon-do, the average number of confirmed patients per day per week is 12.6, which has already exceeded the average of 10 patients per day, which is the standard for moving from step 1 to step 1.5.

Prime Minister Chung also announced that he will run a special quarantine period for two weeks starting on the 19th to avoid harm to examinees before the academic ability test on the 3rd of next month.

During this period, quarantine will be strengthened in facilities that are frequently accessed by students, such as academies and computer rooms.
