To prevent aggregation infection! South Korean government copied "Xintiandi" headquarters and obtained tens of thousands of members
[Global Times Special Correspondent Liu Yuan Global Times Special Correspondent Jin Huizhen] Due to the emergence of "super communicators" and a large number of patients diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia in the Xintiandi Church in Daegu, the entire Daegu City has become a severely affected area. On the 25th, Gyeonggi-do, the headquarters of the Xintiandi Church, took a decisive move and went straight to the headquarters of Xintiandi to "copy" and obtained the list and information of tens of thousands of believers. Gyeonggi-do said the move was to prevent Gyeonggi-do from becoming the second Daegu.
The Yonhap News Agency said on the 25th that the Central Countermeasure Headquarters of the Korean Disaster Security Agency stated on the same day that, after consulting with the Xintiandi Church, the other party agreed on the 24th to provide the government with a list of all believers and contact information. In accordance with the steps, Xintiandi first provided a list of high-risk groups. These include foreigners who visited Daegu churches from January to February this year, and Daegu churches who have gone to other places. As for the names of the remaining believers, Xintiandi said that "the arrangements will be made as soon as possible." South Korea's CDC said on the 25th that after receiving the list of high-risk people in Xintiandi, they will be tested for New Crown virus nucleic acid. If there are suspected symptoms among the remaining believers, relevant tests will be performed in time and the information will be made public at any time. Yonhap News Agency predicts that the total number of Xintiandi believers will reach 215,000.
"It is not too late to wait for Xintiandi to submit the list, we must race against time." On the 25th, the Xintiandi headquarters in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi-do was "raided" by the government. Gyeonggi-do governor Lee Jae-ming, who took the iron-handed move, said "this move is to avoid making Gyeonggi-do a second Daegu." On the 25th, the "Jingxiang News" said that at 10.30 am on the same day, the Gyeonggi government sent more than 40 civil servants to the Xintiandi headquarters in Gwacheon, in order to ensure a list of believers who had participated in the worship of 10,000 people there. It is reported that government personnel did not encounter obstruction or conflict when they entered the "copying house" of Xintiandi headquarters.
It is reported that the Gyeonggi-do government recently discovered that Xintiandi headquarters had held a large worship service attended by 10,000 worshippers in Gwacheon on the 16th of this month. Among the worshippers who participated in the activity, two have been detained as of the 25th. New coronary pneumonia was diagnosed. Since this large gathering was similar to the situation when Daegu Xintiandi believers were infected collectively, the Gyeonggi-do government immediately alerted the government. Gyeonggi-do Governor Lee Jae-ming said on the 25th: "Before more confirmed patients appear, if the government does not take decisive measures to prevent epidemics like military operations, Gwacheon and Gyeonggi-do may become the second Daegu and the source of collective infection. Therefore, We don't have time to wait for Xintiandi to provide the list of believers. We have to race against time. And the list provided by Xintiandi may not be reliable. " In fact, a Gyeonggi-do resident who was diagnosed with new crown pneumonia on the 25th had previously participated in the worship of the Daegu Xintiandi Church. However, the "20 Gyeonggi Taoist List of Daegu Church worshipers" provided by the Xintiandi headquarters to the Gyeonggi-do government was Without this person, it is doubtful that the "list" is authentic.
On the afternoon of the 25th, the Gyeonggi-do government announced that it had grasped a list of more than 40,000 Xintiandi believers through the "copying" operation that day. The Gyeonggi-do government would immediately investigate these people and take measures such as isolation and nucleic acid testing. The Gyeonggi-do government issued an executive order urgently on the 24th, announcing the compulsory closure of 353 Xintiandi church facilities and the prohibition of rallies within 14 days.
The News Agency reported on the 25th that the brother of Xintiandi leader Li Wanxi had been hospitalized in the emergency department of Danan Hospital from January 27 to 31 before his death. His funeral was from January 31 to February. It was held in the funeral home on the first floor of the hospital on the 2nd. In the meantime, 47 Xintiandi church cadres from Daegu and Busan went to the condolences, but no believers from China participated in the condolences. At present, the police and the epidemic prevention department of Cheongdo-gun are tracking the whereabouts of the 47 people. In addition, there have been a total of 113 patients with new coronary pneumonia so far at Danan Hospital, including 103 inpatients, 9 medical staff such as nurses, and 1 family member of patients. The Korea CDC said on the 25th that it has sent a medical team consisting of infectious medicine, emergency medicine, and physicians to support Danan Hospital.
According to SBS TV reported on the 25th, in order to prevent the spread of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the ruling party, the Common Democratic Party, the government cabinet, and the Qingwatai held a high-level party and government high-level meeting on the same day, and initially decided to designate Daegu City and Gyeongsangbuk-do, the worst affected areas, as "specially controlled areas "And take maximum blockade measures to prevent the epidemic from spreading further.
