In addition, one cabin crew member of Korean Air was confirmed. The people in Gyeongbuk, who recently went on a pilgrimage to Israel, have been confirmed, and it is likely that they were on the same plane. The crew has been to Los Angeles since then.

Korean Air cabin crew member A, who was confirmed corona19, was put into the plane on the 15th after returning to Incheon from Tel Aviv, Israel.

It was reported that 30 people were confirmed by a plane on a pilgrimage group in Gyeongbuk province.

It is said that airplanes are sterilized by air through hepa filters, which are safe from viruses, but some say they cannot rule out the possibility of infection on board.

[Kim Dong-hyun, Chairman of the Korean Society of Epidemiology (Professor, Hallym University): (Infection) is likely. The handle of the bathroom will be on this place.]

A was also in Los Angeles four days after the Israeli flight.

It is known that they could leave the country after being quarantined due to no clinical symptoms such as fever.

A stayed at the Walsh Grand Center Hotel in Los Angeles for about a day and a half, coughing was on the way back to Incheon.

After returning home, I visited a public health center and was confirmed today morning (25th).

Korean Air said, "We are discussing the details of Mr. A's domestic and international routes with the health authorities in detail."

The crew also closed its flight preparation office and self-contained dozens of people, including Mr. A, who worked with Mr. A for 14 days.

However, it is difficult to estimate who has been exposed to Mr. A's flight, such as on board aircraft, in Los Angeles, or in a local restaurant.

It may also be caused by problems such as restrictions on Korean Air's operations or the prevention of traffic on Los Angeles routes.

Therefore, it is urgent to find out the route of infection and the correlates of confirmed persons.
