Two additional confirmed cases of the mutant virus of the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19), which is spreading rapidly in the UK, have been confirmed. As a result, 5 people became infected with the domestic mutant virus.
According to the quarantine authorities on the 30th, two additional cases of mutant virus infection originating in the UK were confirmed. One of the confirmed mutant virus infections on this day was a man in his 80s who was confirmed after his death at the Ilsan Hospital of the National Health Insurance Service.
This patient had previously suffered from heart disease. On the 13th, after entering the country with his family in the United Kingdom, he was quarantined, but cardiac arrest occurred at 10:45 am on the 26th, and he was transferred to the emergency room of the Ilsan Hospital. Afterwards, samples were taken and first aid was taken, but he passed away at 11:27 a.m., just 40 minutes.
Three other family members of the confirmed patient also tested positive, and a full genome analysis of these samples is currently underway.
Another case is that of a woman in her twenties who entered the country through the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from the United Kingdom.
Goyang City said on the 30th: “The confirmed person who died on the 26th was confirmed to be infected with a mutant virus from the UK on the 30th, and the Goyang City promptly took appropriate action.” According to Goyang City, dedicated public officials are appointed one-on-one for 7 people who quarantine themselves classified as close contacts, and intensive self-isolation management with daily and man-to-man monitoring is underway. In addition, 4 people classified as active monitoring targets are asked to comply with strict personal quarantine standards equivalent to self-isolation and daily monitoring. The second Corona 19 trial is currently underway for 11 people who are in close contact and actively monitored.
On the 28th, the city of Goyang revealed the movements of the deceased and their families living together. According to this, in the case of confirmed deaths, 3 residents and 4 first responders assisting patients due to cardiac arrest occurred in the hallway of their home while they were moving to the Corona 19 test before self-isolation was released on day 26 after entering UK after entering the country on day 13 (wearing protective clothing)) They were classified as close contacts. They are in self-quarantine after testing negative for Corona 19. The two families that entered the country together have not had movement since December 13, due to self-isolation.
The problem is that Mr. A, one of the family members who stayed with this patient, entered Korea last month and was released from self-isolation. Goyang City said: “Mr. A, who arrived first on November 8, took a car to meet his family at the airport on November 13. After the meeting, he wore a mask from November 14 to 22 and CCTV analysis showed no contact. ” . However, three people who visited and contacted a hospital in Ilsan-dong-gu on the 23rd and 26th, and one who visited and contacted a beauty salon in Ilsan-dong-gu on the 23rd were classified as active surveillance targets. Mr. A was diagnosed, but it was not confirmed whether he was infected with the mutant virus. If Mr. A is confirmed to be infected with the mutant virus, there is great concern that it will spread to the community.
