[전국]Last year’s busiest place,’Disease Management Administration’… fights with Corona 19 from the first day of the new year

[앵커]

The busiest place last year would be the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which is actually directing the COVID-19 quarantine.

Even at this time on the first day of the new year, KCDC employees are struggling with Corona 19.

Yes, it is.

The building behind me is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

I don’t know if you can see the building because it’s dark.

The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is divided into 14 buildings.

Among them, the most important emergency center is dark because the lights do not leak out, but there are many employees currently struggling with Corona 19.

If you pick the government department that received the most attention in the face of the Corona 19 crisis, the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would be mentioned.

Commissioner Jeong Eun-kyung, who kept the briefing scene at the beginning of last year, became a familiar face to the public.

As the importance of national quarantine was emphasized more than ever, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was promoted to the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in September of last year, as an independent institution.

As a result, the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is able to exercise its own authority to establish and enforce infectious disease policies as a vice-minister-level external agency.

Above all, with the promotion to the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 40% of the existing quota has been reinforced, allowing us to focus more on responding to infectious diseases.

In addition, the National Institute of Health and Disease Response Center were established as affiliated organizations.

In the headquarters of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a comprehensive situation room that monitors crisis situations 24 hours a day, and a Crisis Response Analyst Office that collects and analyzes infectious disease information has also been established.

Currently, everyone is having a difficult and difficult time due to the big wave of the third pandemic of Corona 19.

With the possibility of continuing Corona 19 this year, the KCDC’s responsibility and mission, which is at the forefront of Corona 19, is expected to become even heavier.
