“If we can’t stop the spread tax, we are concerned about the possibility of a 4th outbreak”
‘Social distance’ adjustment proposal announced on Sunday
[앵커]
Although the number of new corona19 confirmed patients has remained in the 400 range for the second day, the spread trend is likely not to subside for the time being as large and small group infections follow.
The quarantine authorities will announce a social distancing adjustment plan, which will be applied from next month, the day after tomorrow.
Reporter Park Kyung-seok’s report.

The number of new confirmed cases decreased from the previous day, but the key quarantine indicators were worse.
The average number of confirmed cases per day for the past week has increased significantly to 421.
The level of social distancing exceeded the level of 400 people, the standard of 2.5 steps, for the second day, and the increase was even steeper.
The aftermath of the IM Mission continues, and cases of new outbreaks in nursing homes, acquaintances, and workplaces are continuing.
The quarantine authorities’ greatest goal is to reduce the number of confirmed cases ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday, but the prospect is not bright.
There are even concerns that if the spreading trend is not broken, the fourth epidemic with the bottom of 400-500 confirmed cases per day could begin.

Social distancing adjustments, which will take effect next month, are announced this Sunday.
The ban on meetings of five or more people, which is evaluated as having a great effect on quarantine, is expected to remain undisputed.
However, whether to maintain the current social distancing stage, it is necessary to observe the trend of confirmed cases until the end.

Although the quarantine authorities have been cautious until the end, the prospect is prevailing that it will not be easy to lower the distance unless there is a dramatic decline.
