In order to provide more wards for more serious patients and to focus more treatment on them, we have informed that people with relatively mild symptoms will be accommodated in a place called a life therapy center. The government's plan is to secure additional beds in the future after opening its doors in Daegu yesterday (2 days). The problem is that the rate of patient growth is faster.

Daegu Life Treatment Center, which opened yesterday, currently contains 138 corona19 mild patients in isolation.
Daegu's second day of life is relatively calm.
I briefly met with a center official and said there was no problem with the health of the residents.
[Central official: (Are there any serious health problems?) This is a mild patient. Severe patients go to the hospital. .]
A patient came out of quarantine after one day.
[Center official: Please go carefully. You suffered a lot. Isolate your home at home and heal completely.]
Gyeongbuk Gyeongju Nonghyup Training Center, which has been designated as a home care center, plans to accommodate 235 people in today.
[Lee Chang-Joon / Jeong-Soo Bon, Patient Management Team: There are plans to accommodate up to 3,000 people up to next week if it cannot be digested in Daegu and Gyeongbuk until 2000.]
But the problem is that patient growth is faster than hospital beds.
There are over 2,000 patients without beds who are waiting for admission to Daegu alone.
[Corona 19 Patient: I want to get in quickly and get treated quickly, but I'm very frustrated. It's okay to hear that I'm going in today. It's frustrating… .]
Many people point out that it is difficult to prevent home quarantine death by gradually expanding the capacity of 100 and 200 people in Daegu and Gyeongbuk, where hundreds of people are confirmed every day.
