After the corona 19 was cured, the authorities of the quarantine authorities said that the case of the Kimpo family, which was judged as 'confirmed' again, appears to be 'reactive' rather than the virus 'reinfection'.

Jung Eun-kyung, head of the Central Quarantine Countermeasures Division (Bang Dae-bon), said at a regular briefing held at the Osong Center for Disease Control in Chungcheongbuk-do on the 30th.

On the 28th, Gimpo City announced that a couple in their 30s and their children (17 months) were discharged from Seoul National University Bundang Hospital and Myongji Hospital, respectively, and were subsequently reconfirmed.

Regarding the case of a 'reconfirmation' of a family, experts at the time suggested that they should look to see if they were re-infected with the same virus, or if the virus in their body was reactivated.

Separately, there was also an estimate that the cause of the reaffirmation was due to an 'inspection error'.

However, quarantine officials have suggested that this is unlikely.

"When the Kimpo family was confirmed to be positive again, we reviewed the inspection agency and the inspection contents and it would be difficult to regard it as an error in inspection," said Jung. I'll announce it later. "

As more than 10 cases of re-confirmation occur in Korea, some voices say that it is necessary to change the standard of 'removal of quarantine'.

According to the current guidelines, corona19 confirmers release the quarantine when all negatives are observed in the PCR (gene amplification) test, which is performed twice every 24 hours after symptoms such as fever disappear.

In this regard, General Manager Jung said, "We are collecting cases that have been confirmed as positive after the release of quarantine."
