The 60-year-old inmate at Gimcheon Youth Prison in Gyeongbuk received a confirmation of corona19.

The guards have been infected with Corona 19, but this is the first time an inmate has been tested positive.

Gimcheon Youth Prison says a 60-year-old male A, who was imprisoned in prison for unconfirmed status, showed fever symptoms on the 27th and was correlated with corona 19 by an external agency.

Mr. A was released this morning after receiving a decision to suspend the arrest of Kim Cheon Ji-won of the Daegu District Law. However, he was temporarily admitted to a family meeting with Kim Cheon Youth Church because he was not assigned a medical institution.

The Ministry of Justice will discuss with local authorities such as local public health centers to quarantine Mr. A as soon as they are designated.

The Kimcheon Children's Prison says it has quarantined more than 30 employees and prisoners suspected of having contacted Mr. A in their own quarantine and separate camps.

Mr. A, who was detained at the detention center on the 20th of last month, has been reported to have had no external visit history since he visited the Daegu prosecutor's Kimcheon branch on the 29th of last month.

The Ministry of Justice has cooperated with the Gimcheon Public Health Center to establish a screening clinic in the prison and is investigating A's path to prison.
