South Korea ’s new crown pneumonia epidemic has shown a rapid spread since February 20. As of 9 am on February 23, a total of 556 people had been diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia, and most of the new cases were concentrated in Daegu and Gyeongsangbuk-do regions.

On Daegu streets, there are almost no people on the weekends, and there are few pedestrians. The shops along the street have basically been closed.

Currently, the South Korean government has designated Daegu and Gyeongbuk areas with severe outbreaks as areas for special management of infectious diseases. (Reporter Zeng Jun editor Lu Jie)
