Two confirmed patients awaiting a bed assignment at a nursing hospital in Bucheon, Gyeonggi-do, where the outbreak of a new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) became infected, and the number of cumulative deaths rose to six.
According to the city of Bucheon on the 19th, two people, including A, a woman in her 80s, were quarantined in a cohort (the same group) at Hyoplus Nursing Hospital in Sangdong, Bucheon-si the day before.
A was quarantined at a nursing hospital after testing positive for Corona 19 on the 11th, waiting for all the beds for a week, and eventually died.
Mr. B, a man in his 60s, was confirmed on the 14th, and it was confirmed that his condition worsened after four days of quarantine in the cohort and died.
Consequently, based on the Bucheon area, the confirmed cumulative crown19 at this nursing hospital remained at 128, but the death toll rose to 6.
Previously in this nursing hospital, three elderly people between the ages of 70 and 80 died from 13 to 16 while waiting for all the quarantine beds.
The other died on the 17th during treatment after being diagnosed on the 11th and was assigned a bed at Gyeonggi Medical Center Icheon Hospital.

Quarantine authorities immediately quarantined the entire ward on the eighth floor of the building on the 11th when 67 confirmed cases, including staff and patients, occurred at the nursing hospital. At that time, the hospital had a total of 200 people, including 124 patients and 76 employees.
Excluding patients transferred to other hospitals, 133 people (103 patients, 30 employees) are still in cohort quarantine at 0 o’clock on the day. Of these, 87 confirmed patients are awaiting all quarantine beds.
Currently, there are 21 wards and 144 beds in the hospital, where confirmed and negative patients are separated. Among negative patients, patients with suspected Corona 19 symptoms are quarantined in separate hospital rooms.
Taking into account that 67 (52.3%) of the 128 confirmed patients in the hospital are between 80 and 100 years or older, the situation is expected to worsen as the allocation of beds is delayed.
Meanwhile, the Central Accident Control Center is providing medical support by urgently admitting 18 members of the medical staff to the nursing hospital to this day.
