On the 22nd, the quarantine authorities announced that the “special measures to reinforce the quarantine for the end of the year and New Year” are actually a stronger measure than the third stage of social distancing. By looking at the content, you are closer to asking him to stay still at home.
First of all, he strongly recommended canceling private meetings with more than 5 people across the country starting at 0:00 on the 24th. Compared to the previous day, Seoul City, Gyeonggi Province, and Seoul City Incheon announced that they would issue an administrative order to ‘ban’ private gatherings with more than 5 people starting at 0 o’clock on the 23rd, the coercion was lower, but more than ‘banning or more banning groups’ in the third stage This is a reinforced standard for the number of people.

On the other hand, considering the limitation that it is practically impossible to ban all gatherings of five or more people in the whole country, it was adjusted to the recommended level instead of a ban.
The definition of “private meeting” was also widely applied. Sohn Young-rae, head of the Accident Control Headquarters Strategic Planning Division, said that private meetings for this countermeasure “refer to all meetings excluding (public) business meetings. In particular, it is considered that most meals do not correspond to public gatherings. There is, “he explained.
There is also a measure to limit bookings for accommodation facilities such as hotels and resorts to 50%, which is not included in the third step.

For sports facilities, in stage 3 above, indoor facilities were specified as prohibited for the meeting, and outdoor facilities are required to wear a mask if the distance is not kept more than 2m. However, in this countermeasure, the facilities for winter sports were collected and included in the group ban. 16 ski resorts and 128 snow sledding sites across the country will also be closed until January 3. This is a preventive precaution against the recent outbreak of group infection in the Gangwon-do ski resort. Quarantine authorities also banned private gatherings for nursing hospital workers as a quarantine measure during the end of the year and the New Year holidays. This is also not a step from step 3.
This appears to be an intention to break the chain of group infections that have continued recently. As a result of the analysis of 52 cases of group outbreaks of COVID-19 that appeared recently in the last week (13-19 days) by the Central Defense Response Headquarters, the infection route was the most with 15 cases with religious facilities, 12 cases with workplaces and 10 cases with medical institutions and nursing facilities.
