Among the new corona19 confirmed cases, 55 cases are cases of community infection, in addition to 3 overseas inflows.

79 people were confirmed the previous day, followed by 50 consecutive days.

The number of confirmed patients related to the distribution center increased to 102 within six days after the first confirmed patient, of which 72 were directly infected and 30 cases of secondary transmission.

The government has decided to stop operating public facilities such as art galleries and museums in the metropolitan area for about two weeks until the 14th of next month to prevent further spread of infection in the metropolitan area.

In addition, it was strongly recommended to refrain from operating schools and PC rooms that students use a lot.

The Japanese-language closing order currently issued to all daycare centers across the country will be lifted from next week.

The head of each local government may decide whether to open or not depending on the local situation.

However, in the metropolitan area where the number of confirmed patients has skyrocketed, the government has decided to extend the closure for some time.

The public mask system is also improved.

The Ministry of Food and Drug Affairs decided to abolish the five subtitles from next month and expand the number of elementary, middle and high school students to purchase five masks.

Purchases can be made once or multiple times, regardless of the year of birth or the day of the week.

In addition, the production of surgical masks, whose demand has skyrocketed, has more than doubled, and it is decided to supply a new 'block for splash prevention' that can be worn for a long time in everyday life in addition to the existing health and surgical masks.
