On day 2, the number of confirmed cases of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) across the country rose to 500 after four days, and the number of confirmed cases in Seoul per day reached 200 again. The spread in daily life is spreading, with additional confirmed cases of existing group infections appearing in academies, schools and universities a day before the college entrance exam.
In particular, as the number of new confirmed patients registered in three digits for two consecutive weeks, the number of dedicated treatment beds for seriously ill patients dropped to one digit. In consultation with a senior private general hospital, the Seoul Metropolitan Government decided to designate an additional treatment bed for seriously ill patients and operate the ‘Crown Severe Treatment (TF) Task Force 19’.
Seoul Confirmed 193 People … Guro-gu High School Group Infection
According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government on the 2nd, the number of confirmed cases of corona19 increased by 193 per day on the 1st. On the 25th of last month, 213 people rose to a record, and then 178 people on the 27th and 155 people on the 30 fell to 200 people in one day. 37.8% of the nationally confirmed cases (511) came from Seoul.
In a high school in Guro-gu, the confirmed cumulative number exceeded 10. After a student was confirmed for the first time on the 27th of last month, 7 more were confirmed on the 31st and 3 more per day, a total of 11 people were infected with Corona 19. Park Yoo-mi, director of the city’s Citizen Health Office, explained: “It was difficult to maintain a distance of 1 meter between the students and the risk of infection was high due to living in a dormitory during the week”.
The Daechi-dong Language Academy at Korea University also presented additional confirmed cases
The group infection persisted in the Daechi-dong Language Academy, Gangnam-gu. On Day 1, 9 additional confirmed cases came out per day, and the cumulative number increased to 18. Principal Park Yoomi explained, “It is difficult to ventilate because there are no windows in the academy, and because the classroom area is not large, the distance between the students was not kept long enough. ” .
At the Korean University gang club, a total of 7 people were also found to be infected with Corona 19. The Seoul Metropolitan Government estimates that the infection occurred in the process of practicing to perform at a club meeting. In the case of schools and academies, the Seoul Metropolitan Government emphasized that regulations such as: ▶ Ventilation more than twice a day ▶ No food consumption ▶ Disinfection of surfaces more than twice ▶ Restriction of the number of users (limited to one person for every 4㎡ or a distance of more than 1m), emphasized the Seoul Metropolitan Government.
Separate test report test by confirmed person and ambulance
Meanwhile, the city of Seoul has entered ‘Crown Special Situations Management 19’ to prepare for the SAT exams held in the third and future college exams. Even early in the morning the day before the SAT, if Corona 19 is confirmed, the main goal is to prepare for the SAT at life treatment centers such as Seoul Medical Center and Namsan Youth Hostel. Even if they are not confirmed, if they are classified as self-quarantine, they will be tested at a dedicated testing center (22 locations). If the examinee requests the transfer, he can go to the test site by the autonomous district task force or ambulance 119 on the day of the SAT.
Also, even if you are not a confirmed person or a self-imposed person, if you have fever symptoms on the day of the test, you can take the test in a separate test room at the general test site. According to the Ministry of Education, among the nationwide SAT test subjects, 37 confirmed corona19 students and 430 quarantined.
Adding a dedicated bed for seriously ill patients in a hospital for the elderly
The city of Seoul also decided to come up with a plan to expand the number of treatment beds dedicated to seriously ill patients, which has declined due to the recent increase in confirmed cases. Dedicated beds require 5-10 times more medical staff than regular beds and are equipped with medical equipment such as ventilators and ECMO. As the number of confirmed patients in Seoul registered triple digits during the second week, the number of dedicated beds in Seoul decreased to six per day.
Seoul Mayor Seo Jeong-hyup held an emergency meeting with the director of a private general hospital in Seoul on day 1 and added dedicated hospital beds such as Samsung Seoul Hospital, Seoul St. Mary Hospital, Hospital University Hospital of Ewha University, Severance Hospital of Yonsei University, Anam Hospital of Korea University, and Asan Hospital of Seoul. Meanwhile, they agreed to operate the ‘Seoul Corona 19 Severe Treatment TF’, which is made up of high-level hospital professors.
