Even if you hide your suspicious symptoms and take a test
Difficult to demonstrate will and limit disciplinary action
Asymptomatic people are at increased risk of infection.
Strengthen management supervision, how to strengthen distance
Interviews and practical applications should be increased without face-to-face evaluation.
With the college entrance exam scheduled for the 3rd of next month approaching the 10th, the so-called ‘silent infected person’ test management issue is emerging as a blind spot for the SAT. Silently infected person means a confirmed person who does not know if they have a new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) because they have no symptoms, or who knowingly avoids diagnostic tests without notifying authorities despite having suspicious symptoms. It is noted that the Corona 19 pandemic can become a reality if general candidates and supervisors are contacted on the day of the SAT.

The Ministry of Education and quarantine authorities have prepared positive incentives to prevent candidates from deliberately hiding symptoms and gaze. Even if candidates with suspicious symptoms are tested in the screening clinic and notified of quarantine and confirmation, they will be able to take the SAT without interruption. The government has established a separate testing room for quarantine notification examinees, and confirmation notification examinees can request it at designated hospitals or life treatment centers.
The problem is the essay, the interview and the practical selection that the university does after the SAT. For essay writing and interview selection, each university decides whether to request quarantine or confirmed patients. As such, candidates have a lot of anxiety, ‘if you are diagnosed with a diagnostic test and confirmed, you will not even be able to take the opportunity to apply for your desired college admission even if you take the SAT. It means that even if you have symptoms, you can take a test without undergoing a diagnostic test. On the day of the test, a fever test is done at the test site, but the quarantine hole remains as long as can be avoided if the candidate takes antipyretic drugs in advance.
A Ministry of Education official said: “In case of Corona 19 symptoms, we are guiding ourselves to immediately visit a screening clinic to undergo a diagnostic test.” He explained: “We are informing examinees that if they do not comply with the prior notification obligation, they may suffer disadvantages.” However, in this case, even if the fact of postinfection is confirmed, if the candidate himself claims to have no symptoms and did not know if he was infected until the day of the test, it is difficult to show whether the examinee is intentionally silent, so that there is a limit to post-disciplinary punishment.
The best way to prevent the deliberate silence of examinees with symptoms is to induce minimization of restrictions on the admission of isolated or confirmed patients in the university’s selection of trials, interviews and practical skills. An official from the Ministry of Education said: “If it is possible to reduce the level of contact of examinees without infringing on the impartiality of the examination, a separate examination center can be set up for isolated persons to take the examination, or the guidelines have been made for the university so that the interview selection can be changed to a non-face-to-face method. I gave it. “However, as the confirmed person is at high risk of infecting other candidates or test management personnel, it is virtually difficult to force them to guarantee testing opportunities.
The biggest problem is asymptomatic infected people, who are not even aware of the infection. Patients with asymptomatic infections are at a higher risk of being in close contact with other people than those who travel to the test site by public transportation on the day of the SAT and deliberately remain silent while moving around the test site. Of course, it is not detected in the quarantine network for diagnostic tests just before the SAT. Partitions are installed in the test room between desks and a distance of 2 m is maintained, however, in the corridors, restrooms and around the entrance to the test center, students can meet at breaks, lunch and after school. completion of the test at the same time, and the density may increase momentarily. It is noted that efforts to minimize the possibility of close contact are necessary through intensive training to ensure that quarantine personnel are sufficiently available at each location on the test site where there is concern about overcrowding to ensure distance and use of masks, and once the test is finished, the outputs are carried out in the order of each test room. / Reporter Min Byeong-kwon [email protected]
