Goyang City (Mayor Jae-joon Lee) will operate temporary screening tests in four traffic-oriented areas, such as Hwajeong Station and Jeongbalsan Station, to prevent the spread of Corona 19 infection for three weeks, from 14 to 3 May. January next year.

Goyang City has urgently installed Corona 19 projection offices in three locations: Hwajeong Culture Plaza (Hwajeong Station Exit 4), Goyang Tourist Information Center (Jeongbalsan Station Exits 1 and 2) and Ilsan Station Square on the Gyeongui Line for three days to As of the 11th. Accordingly, four additional temporary screening and testing centers will be operated in conjunction with the Safe Vehicle Detection Clinic (Bishop’s first public parking lot), which resumed from the 11th.

Goyang City said: “The establishment of three temporary control stations near subway stations is a measure to increase accessibility by establishing a place near the central public transport area where citizens are more concentrated, so that more citizens can use it. “

In particular, the three temporary screening tests installed near Hwajeong Station, Jeongbalsan Station and Ilsan Station are based on RT-PCR, an existing inspection method with a very high accuracy of 99%. The antigen test (90% accuracy) is also performed in parallel.

The RT-PCR test method is very accurate, but if you order a sample from a specialized institution, you can know if it is confirmed after at least 6 hours. On the other hand, the rapid antigen test method is slightly inferior to the RT-PCR test, but it is effective in rapidly blocking further infection as it can be detected for confirmation in 15 to 30 minutes on site.

If the rapid antigen test result is confirmed on site, an additional sample is taken again using the RT-PCR method, and self-isolation is taken immediately, and if the final diagnosis is received, it is transferred to a treatment center life or a designated hospital.

Rapid antigen test, check for site confirmation in 15-30 minutes

Along with this, Goyang City allows anonymous testing to be performed by replacing the date of birth with a personal mobile number instead of entering the date of birth for testing for as many citizens as possible, preventing testing and the stigmatization effect on evaluators.

It operates at the same time on weekends, and the police and soldiers are also placed in the quarantine site.

Goyang Mayor Lee Jae-joon said: “Many citizens who travel to and from the metropolitan area, such as workplaces and meetings, are becoming infected, and then the pattern of new infections is repeating in families and communities. To break the link of spread, infection is suspected even if there are no symptoms. “All citizens who become citizens must receive a Corona 19 test without overburdening time and expense and assess it early and block the spread to me. family and neighbors “.

On the other hand, all the detection and audit centers (clinics) in Goyang city can receive a free test (PCR) regardless of the presence or absence of any symptoms from the citizens of Goyang. Rapid antigen testing is only possible at 3 temporary detection stations installed close to the station.

In Goyang City, there are three permanent screening clinics, including Deogyang-gu Health Center, Ilsan Dong-gu Health Center, and Ilsan Seo-gu Health Center (hours of operation are 9 am to 9 pm Monday through Friday and 9 am to 6 pm on holidays), as well as 4 temporary screenings.
