On the 20th of last month, it was revealed that a Korean medical staff in Pyeongtaek City deceived patients while going overseas to Southeast Asia for medical service to Daegu.

Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi Province said on the 4th, "We are going to accuse the patients who were undergoing regular medical treatment for the establishment of Pyeongtaek 123 Clinic that falsely advertised as 'going to medical service in Daegu' on charges of violating medical law."

On the 16th of last month, the 123 Korean hospital staff sent a message to the unspecified number of patients, such as “Mother's mother, we are going to serve in Daegu from March 20 to 23! We have been sent to our service! From today, it is understood that I sent a message.

However, it was confirmed by the investigation of Pyeongtaek City that the five Korean acupuncture workers traveled to Southeast Asia.

In particular, a woman in her 50s (Pyeongtaek No. 16) living in the Human Park in Seojeong-dong, one of the members of the Oriental Medical Center, was confirmed by Corona 19 after her trip.

The woman hid the fact that she met her friend during the epidemiological investigation, and was also accused after the acquaintance was confirmed (No. 18 in Pyeongtaek).

During the investigation of the false statement of patient 16, Pyeongtaek City reported that it identified the travel history of 123 Korean medical practitioners in Southeast Asia.

Earlier, on the 1st of the Cheong Wa Dae National Petition Bulletin, there was a post on the bulletin board stating 'Please severely punish deceitful acts of Korean medical clinics', and as of today, about 6,000 people have agreed.

The petitioner said, "My father was classified as an active surveillance subject after receiving medical treatment at 123 Oriental Medical Clinic." "My father is not eating properly and dries blood every day, and he is doing heat checks. He lied about going to serve. "

He said, "A lot of people are suffering from corona19 every day, and more medical staff are suffering." In this situation, it was hard to understand that I was traveling abroad, and many people suffered from the lies that continued later. "I can't understand what I'm looking at."

Under the medical law, false advertisements impose a sentence of up to one year in prison or a fine of up to 10 million won.

Depending on the case, the administrative disposition of business suspension can be made for the medical institution within a year.

Meanwhile, Pyeongtaek City accused a citizen who met an acquaintance after leaving the United States on the 24th of the month and had been denied without permission during a self-containment period.

According to the Act on the Prevention and Management of Infectious Diseases, fines of up to 3 million won are penalized for violating self-containment rules.
