He continued: “As latent infections have accumulated in the community, it seems that the effect (distance enhancement) has not been sufficiently exhibited. In particular, in the recent metropolitan area, the infection continues to increase, so refraining from moving in this area is I need more situations. “Regarding the epidemiological investigation situation, Director Lim said:” The central and local governments are mobilizing all its capabilities to trace contacts, but it is true that the spread of the infection is great and there are too many cases ”. It is also around 20%, which is an increasing trend compared to the previous week.”

Director Lim said: “The infection is showing up in all corners of our daily lives, such as university clubs, acquaintances, pubs and academies, and all over the country.” It’s happening around you. “He added:” It means that (the infected person) could be our family or acquaintances. “
Quarantine authorities urged them to cancel the meeting and refrain from moving until the spread of the third epidemic came to a complete halt. Director Lim emphasized that “it is not enough to be alert now, and people have to make bold decisions and act.” “In the first and second weeks of this month, as students from all over the country are concentrated in the universities of the metropolitan area, there seems to be a risk of contagion. Once the SAT is finished, meetings between friends and acquaintances are delayed for a while and Please make a schedule. “
