I'm very grateful for all the medical staff in the field, including the medical staff I just saw, and I want you to cheer up.

Then, let's summarize the contents of today (25th) with Cho Dong-chan, a medical journalist.

Q. What is the alleged 'containment' term?

[Jo Dong-chan / medical journalist (specialist): Ebola mortality rate is 50%, it is appropriate to block the area of ​​high infectious disease. The blockade was to block the area, but it also meant to give up, so it was withdrawn, but the word blockade was inappropriate. While refraining from entering and going to Daegu and Gyeongbuk, patients and medical staff are coming and going from other areas. It's not currently blocked. It will not be in the future.]

Q. What about Abigan? How is vaccine developed?

[Jo Dong-chan / medical journalist (specialist): Abigan is a drug developed to catch the virus by inhibiting the enzymes necessary for the virus to multiply, but not intended for Corona 19. It has also been used in the flu and Ebola, but the effect was limited. Since there are no drugs, Corona 19 is trying any drug that can be used in China or Japan but has not been proven effective. The vaccine, which is now developed, should be available soon in July or August, and the effect is unknown. Experts predict the cure will come sooner than the vaccine.]

Q. What are your field experts' recommendations?

[Jo Dong-chan / medical journalist (specialist): As Corona 19 is getting serious, the control tower is rising to the disease control headquarters, the welfare department, and the prime minister's office. He says he doesn't have time to work in the field every day, as well as attending emergency meetings that are presided over by the Head of the Centers for Disease Control, the Vice Minister of Welfare, the Minister, and the Prime Minister's Office. I have been told that I would like to reduce the number of meetings and give field experts time to work in the field.]
