In Daegu and Gyeongbuk, where there are nearly 70% of all confirmed patients, hospital beds are insufficient. I'll ask you to connect with reporters at Daegu Medical Center.

Reporter Kim Hye-min, (Yes, at the Daegu Medical Center.) The number of confirmed patients suddenly increased. What about the negative pressure room or the hospital?

<Reporter>

Yes, Daegu currently has a shortage of beds due to the explosion of patients in a short period of time.

The Daegu Medical Center I have had 10 negative pressure beds, which are filled with patients and now have 7 more.

Nevertheless, seven patients in Daegu have not been assigned to bed.

The quarantine authorities expect to secure 88 beds by emptying and reorganizing the Rafael Ward of Daegu Medical Center.

In the future, we will use a nearby local medical institution with quarantine beds.

In Gwangju yesterday (20th) there was one confirmed decision, who visited Shinchonji Church there?

<Reporter>

Yes, a 31-year-old male was positive for Corona19 at 9:00 last night at the Gwangju Institute of Health and Environment.

The man attended the Shinchonji Daegu church service, the coronal 19 group's outbreak, on September 16. After complaining of headache symptoms, he visited a public health screening clinic and collected samples.

The man's wife also had symptoms of fever, so she was quarantined and ordered to the same hospital.

In addition, two other members who went to Daegu in a car together are self-contained.

With the rapid spread of Corona19 in Daegu centered on Shincheonji members, Mayor Kwon Young-jin urged citizens to refrain from going out.

In addition, current measures are insufficient to prevent the spread of infection in the community, and the government has called for a major policy shift.
