is a golf course in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province, which is used by hundreds of people a day.

On the 25th, three people who played golf and ate here from 7:00 am to 1:40 pm were judged corona.

This is the first time that corona has spread within a golf course.

The quarantine authorities are conducting epidemiological investigations focusing on the possibility of infection in the course of eating together at the clubhouse rather than the golf rounding process.

More than 20 people who had close contact with the staff, such as the golf course, went into self-isolation, and Gwangju City took measures to prevent indoor facilities such as golf club club houses and restaurants.

Among the three, A, who was the first to be confirmed on the 1st, was found to have used the same gym as the confirmer from the Uijeongbu apartment.

In Uijeongbu apartments, a series of infections occurred from the gym to the golf course.

As the chain of infections has spread across the country, the number of new diagnoses has increased to more than 60 for two consecutive days.

The quarantine authorities are nervous because of the rapid spread.

[Kwon Joon-wook/Deputy Head of Central Defense Countermeasures Headquarters: Compared to the previous case of Daegu and Gyeongbuk, the speed of propagation was felt in the epidemiological investigation process.

Quarantine officials say they should always assume that there are asymptomatic people in the group, and have asked to delay or cancel the meeting.
