On the 28th, two days before the Christmas season, the two-week ‘Chuseok Special Prevention Period’ will be implemented in earnest to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) in Korea.
With the number of new confirmed krone19 still showing around 100, this period is expected to become an important milestone in determining whether krona19 will propagate again.
The government will establish a two-week period from this day until the 11th of next month as the ‘Chuseok special quarantine period’, and will implement the related quarantine measures.
First, basic quarantine measures are applied nationally among the second stage measures of social distancing. Meetings, reunions, events, etc. are not allowed. with 50 people indoors or more than 100 outdoors. The same is true for village festivals, local festivals, and Chuseok folk games. Sporting events like professional baseball must be played without spectators.
Multipurpose facilities such as public restrooms, small and medium academies, game rooms, and PC rooms are required to comply with basic quarantine rules, such as wearing masks and managing access lists. Minors are forbidden access to the computer room and food can be sold and consumed while sitting in a single seat.
National and public indoor facilities such as museums and art galleries, which were suspended during the second phase of social distancing, will be reopened. However, the number of users is limited to half the normal level.
Traditional markets and tourist destinations that are likely to draw crowds during Chuseok holidays can be operated by following quarantine rules. The government plans to deploy 3,200 members of quarantine personnel to famous tourist destinations.
In addition, separate quarantine measures are applied for metropolitan and non-capital regions. In the metropolitan area, existing measures, such as prohibiting the collection of 11 types of high-risk facilities, will continue to apply until the 11th of the following month.
Also, small groups and meals are forbidden in church, and the principle is worship other than face-to-face. Restaurants, including cafes, must respect the distance between tables and floating seats, and the use of masks and the management of access lists are also mandatory.
Movie theaters and showrooms should be limited to half the number of users through a single-seat floating seat and advance reservations for amusement parks and water parks.
Among the high-risk facilities in the non-metropolitan area, five types of entertainment facilities, such as high-risk entertainment pubs, collate pubs, danran, emotional pubs and hunting pots, and door-to-door sales, should be prohibited during two weeks.
According to the Headquarters for Disasters and Security Countermeasures (Chinese writing), the daily average number of new confirmed cases of corona19 in Korea during the last two weeks from 13 to 26 was 91.5 during the last two weeks (176.5 ), thanks to efforts to maintain public social distance. It has been reduced by 85 people.
However, when looking at the main Corona 19 outbreaks in Korea, sporadic group infections continue to appear, focused on workplaces and hospitals in the metropolitan area, day care centers, door-to-door sales and facilities related to the elderly. The day before, the number of new confirmed cases was 95, again reaching three digits.
In particular, in the last two weeks, the “investigation” rate due to the unknown route of infection, 21.0%, higher than the previous two weeks (19.7%).
In addition, there is concern that there is a high possibility that there is a large number of latent infections in the local community that quarantine authorities have not been aware of, as the proportion of management within the quarantine network is also less than 80%.
The script also read: “Currently, the Corona 19 outbreak is gradually blocked and stabilized, but considering the possibility of latent infection, the next two weeks, including Chuseok, will determine the Corona 19 outbreak in the second half of this year according to the quarantine management. I’ll build it. “
He said: “We ask for active participation and cooperation in strengthening social distancing during Chuseok’s special quarantine period, such as refraining from moving to hometown or traveling, minimizing use of multipurpose facilities, and observing quarantine rules.”
