One in four confirmed cases was infected with their family … ‘You must stay away from home’

There are many 4050 who are active in social activities of those who have confirmed good deeds in the family.

One in four confirmed cases of a new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) that occurred in the past month was found to have been infected by a family member. This means that there are many cases of contagion to spouses, children, parents, etc. after a family member is infected with Corona 19 from the outside.

On the 26th, the Central Defense Countermeasures Headquarters (Bangdaebon) recently analyzed (from November 20 to December 16) the characteristics of the transmission of COVID-19 among 15,111 confirmed cases in Korea. He said he was infected with “transmission”. Among the confirmed cases of good actions in the family, the most frequent social activities were 40 (32.0%) and 50 (29.9%). In particular, of 1,761 confirmed children and adolescents aged 0 to 19 years, 766 (43.5%) were infected by secondary transmission within their families.

“To protect me and my family from Corona 19, we must refrain from going out and reuniting.” I ask. “Especially in case of suspicious symptoms, it is very important to undergo an examination immediately, and to observe precautions such as the use of a mask or distancing even between families living together.”

Meanwhile, while Corona 19’s ‘third pandemic’ momentum is barely broken, a new confirmed person recorded four digits for two consecutive days. The Security and Disaster Countermeasures Headquarters (middle script) announced that the number of new confirmed corona19 cases increased by 1,132 on the day to reach a total of 55,000. Since the Corona 19 outbreak in Korea, it was 109 less than the previous day (1,241), which recorded the most confirmed cases per day, but is the second-largest record in history. In particular, it is analyzed that the number of confirmed cases spilled into 1,000 units in a situation in which the number of inspections on Christmas Eve was drastically reduced compared to the working day immediately before Christmas.
