The number of new confirmed cases registered three digits for 37 consecutive days from the 14th of last month to the 19th of last month, which is double digits in 38 days. In this regard, some point out that it is an ‘optical illusion’ that occurred because the number of tests decreased over the weekend. In fact, on the 19th, the number of tests crown 19 in the entire country was 7539. It is less than on the 18th (12,797) and only half the number of inspections on the 17th (14,473). However, there is an analysis that the spread spread narrowed somewhat last weekend (13), when a similar number of tests were performed (7813).
Although the number of new confirmed cases has decreased, the problem is that the proportion of patients with unknown sources of infection is high. According to Bang Dae-bon, 493 (27.4%) of the 1,798 new confirmed cases reported to health authorities from 6 to 20 are investigating the route of infection. The goal of the health authorities is to reduce the proportion of patients with an unknown route of infection to less than 5%.

As a result, the cumulative number of confirmed cases related to the Bumin campus of Dong University -A increased to nine. 319 people were classified as contacts of confirmed patients in the dormitory of the Bumin campus of Dong-A University. As they were found to be located outside of Busan, including 116 people in Gyeongnam, 82 people in Gyeongbuk, 64 people in Ulsan, 6 people in Seoul, and 51 people in other regions, the possibility that Dong-A University be the source of Corona 19 spread across the country. be be.
