Another 400 people in one day… Anxiety still remains in the second stage range

[앵커]

New corona 19 confirmed cases are rising and falling from 300 to 400 every day.

There were 384 confirmed cases of local outbreaks for one week, and it came down to the range of the second stage of distance.

It is the judgment of the quarantine authorities that there are still many anxiety factors and cannot be relieved.

The number of new corona 19 confirmed cases is 431, an increase of 85 from the day before.

The number of new confirmed cases reached 400 for two consecutive days in the middle of the week, then fell to the mid-300 level, but rose to 400 in one day.

Among them, 403 were localized, excluding 28 people from overseas.

The average number of regional infections per week was 384, which was the first time after the start of the 3rd pandemic, which was reduced to 300 people.

However, it is a situation that is unsafe due to the addition of an increase in the amount of movement to existing risk factors such as latent infection, mutant virus, and winter season.

In particular, out of the 244 confirmed cases in the metropolitan area, the number of confirmed cases at the temporary inspection center reaches 73, which is one in three, raising concerns about latent infection.

Even at the time of diagnosis, he cautioned that community infections caused by asymptomatic patients, which can appear up to 60%, may eventually lead to the most vulnerable nursing homes.

<권준욱 / 중앙방역대책본부 2부본부장> “Since there is a possibility that asymptomatic infections are more than half, up to 60% in some cases, and appear in areas where many patients have occurred, such as medical institutions and welfare facilities…”

The quarantine authorities have repeatedly called for observance of the quarantine rules for religious facilities where face-to-face worship has resumed from this weekend, but this is another source of anxiety.

In the meantime, it is also a reality that social easing pressures are increasing over the current distancing phase and the ban on meetings of five or more people scheduled by the end of this month.

The quarantine authorities have appealed to the quarantine regulations, seeing that the flow of confirmed cases is very important for the next week to ease distancing measures.
