In order to prevent the spread of Corona 19, Gyeonggi-do issued a collective restraint administrative order to wedding ceremonies and funeral homes, and the facilities were trying not to be caught in violation of the quarantine regulations.

The scene of the congratulations is changing, such as checking the IDs against guests at the wedding hall and reducing the number of dining chairs in half at the funeral hall.

A wedding hall in Ingye-dong, Paldal-gu, Suwon, on the morning of the 6th, the first weekend since Gyeonggi-do issued an administrative order to the wedding hall on the 1st.

Outside the wedding hall building, tents and desks were prepared along with a placard that says'Where to Create an Enrollment List.'

After wearing a mask and using a hand sanitizer, guests were required to enter the inside of the restaurant only by entering their name, contact information, identification, and time of visit.

The response of the guests to the screening of the first identification at the wedding hall was mixed.

A middle-aged man in his 50s cried out, "Isn't it too complicated to enter the wedding hall once?" and a woman in her 20s said, "I am relieved that the quarantine procedures are well followed."

The nearby B wedding hall was also equipped with a thermal imaging camera as well as an access control ledger at the entrance to prepare for the prevention.

In the wedding hall, guests' chairs were kept at a distance of 1 m or more, and at the banquet hall, disinfection was performed on each table after the meal.

We are making various efforts in the field because we are in a position to take all responsibilities if a corona19 confirmed person violates the rules of prevention.

However, it has been reported that even at the wedding ceremony B, the prospective couples' calls to change the wedding date or reduce the number of guests after the order to ban the gathering of the Gyeonggi Province continued.

An official at the wedding hall said, "One couple drastically reduced the number of people (300 guests) held by 300 to 200, and the other couple postponed the ceremony scheduled for this month to another month." , The ceremony was almost full in the second half of this year due to the delay in the ceremony,” he explained.

Prior to this, it was often seen at the funeral halls of large hospitals in Suwon that were visited during the week to induce a decrease in the number of visitors.

At Hospital C's funeral home, one day before the administrative order began, half of the 100 dining chairs were removed near the entrance.

This is a funeral home's effort to reduce the number of dining chairs so that visitors can return home after a brief visit.

At the hospital's funeral, D asked the visitor, "Please sit down in line and have a meal," and the survivors responded, "Isn't it okay to sit diagonally?"

An official at the funeral home said, "It is true that it is difficult to respond because there are many survivors and visitors who want to sit face to face as usual." .

In addition to the wedding hall and funeral hall, Gyeonggi-do issued a two-week collective limit administrative order from 3pm to 14th on the 1st for multi-use facilities such as logistics warehouses and call centers.

The facility can be gathered for business only if it complies with the quarantine regulations, and must comply with the common guidelines of each business site and the rules of each major business site.

The wedding hall ▲ Prohibit contact with customers, maintain a distance of 1 m or more ▲ Create an indoor sterilization ledger before and after business ▲ Tables used by customers must follow nine anti-disinfection rules, including sterilization after use with a sprayer.

In addition to the funeral home, ▲ provisions for wearing protective gear were added under the cooperation of the public health center in the provision of self-containers.
