On the morning of the 9th, when the morning temperature across the country dropped dramatically, medical personnel guide visitors in front of the stove at the screening clinic located at the National Medical Center in Jung-gu, Seoul. 2020.11.9 / News1 © News1 In Busan, children and office workers who attended a meeting at the Seoul headquarters were successively diagnosed with a new coronavirus infection (Corona 19).
According to the City of Busan on the 11th, the total number of new confirmed cases in Busan at 1pm on the 11th increased to 602.
The new confirmed person 599 (Haeundae-gu) is the wife of the confirmed person 598 (Haeundae-gu), and the confirmed person 600 (Haeundae-gu) is the daughter of the confirmed person 598 and is a kindergarten student . Another elementary school daughter out of 598 confirmed tested negative as a result of the Corona 19 test.
Confirmed person 602 (Haeundae-gu) was also confirmed as a collaborator of the same company with confirmed person 598. They were examined on day 10 after confirmed person 598 was confirmed on day 9. It was confirmed that the 600 confirmed people were admitted to a kindergarten attached to a primary school in Busan from 2 to 6. In kindergarten, masks were worn during class and dividing desks were used for meals and snacks.
The city health authorities decided to operate the kindergarten normally because the symptoms of the 600 confirmed began to appear on the 9th.
A large-scale emergency screening was conducted on 96 kindergarten children and 12 faculty members, but all were judged “negative.” 88 elementary school teachers assigned to the attached kindergarten were also tested, and 84 of them tested negative. The remaining four will be tested at the local public health center.
Kindergarten students and faculty members were not included in the self-isolation because they had come into contact with all 600 cases during the infection-free period. The same goes for the school that the elementary school child of the 598 confirmed attended.
The Busan Metropolitan Bureau of Education conducted the quarantine and disinfection of kindergartens and elementary schools, and took steps to provide remote classes for two days until 10-11.
In particular, confirmed cases 598 and 602 were confirmed as employees of pharmaceutical companies. They were found to have spread after attending the headquarters meeting held in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, on the 4th.
Of the 12 people who attended the meeting at the time, the 446 cases in Daejeon and 525 in Gwangju were later deemed “positive.”
The city’s health authorities have not yet specified the indicators (confirmed for the first time) as the four confirmed patients who attended the meeting had the same symptom onset date in the last 9 days.
Conference participants included residents of the Seoul and Gyeonggi areas, excluding Busan, Daejeon and Gwangju.
Ahn Byung-seon, head of Busan City Citizen Prevention Promotion Division, said: “ The meeting held at the headquarters in Seoul (in the case of confirmed case 598) is presumed to be the main route of infection, and more research is needed to determine how the infection was infected.
“Because there are people who attended the meeting all over the country, the head office of a pharmaceutical company in Seoul and the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are conducting tests and identifying additional targets.” We checked all the contacts of the confirmed person and conducted an examination, and we are awaiting the results. “
On the other hand, an additional confirmed person came out at Haetrak Nursing Hospital that day. It has been 11 days since the confirmed case was released on the 30th of last month.
Confirmed patient 601, who was a patient on the second floor of Haetrak Nursing Hospital, was found to have been handled separately by health authorities when virus emissions remain on the borderline between negative and positive tests since late October.
To date, there have been 86 confirmed patients associated with Haetrak Nursing Hospital, including 70 patients, 15 workers, and 1 employee of Buk-gu Health Center who became infected while collecting patient samples at the nursing hospital. The remaining number of personnel in the same group (cohort) in quarantine so far is 7 people.
Director Ahn said: “In the case of confirmed number 601, we were driving separately in preparation for the possibility of transitioning from a new test to ‘positive’. All containment will be lifted on the 13th as determined. “
