Manmin Central Church in Guro-gu, Seoul. At least six people, including this church member and his family, were confirmed to have been corona19 confirmed.

The church's first confirmed decision is Mr. A, a 40-year-old villa manager who was confirmed on the 25th.

The church switched to online worship on the 6th, but Mr. A, a staff member of the church, was found to have been traveling to and from the church and church villa until recently.

Afterwards, the quarantine authorities closed the Manmin Central Church and Mr. A's villa and prayer room in Dongjak-gu, Seoul.

[Attorney of Dongjak-gu Office: I did not confirm that I watched the worship service there. Because there is a prayer room, we closed the door in case we would go back and forth.]

The quarantine authorities, who completed the inspection of 33 close contacts, yesterday, installed a temporary screening clinic in the church and also tested over 200 suspected contacts.

In addition, 17 residents of Dongjak-gu church villa were tested.

All related confirmers identified so far have been identified as either Mr. A's family or a church employee in direct contact with the community.
