Today (27th), we will focus on the news of Corona 19.

First, there were 569 additional confirmed cases.

This is the first time since the beginning of this year that the number of confirmed cases has exceeded 500 for two consecutive days, and there was no second epidemic last summer.

The government decided on Sunday the day after tomorrow whether to raise the level of social distancing.



The first news, this is Park Chanbeom.



<Reporter> The



areas where the distance step 1.5 or higher is applied are 7 regional local governments and 14 basic local governments.



Among the regional groups, Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon are undergoing phase 2, and 5 basic organizations such as Suncheon, Naju, and Jinju also increased the number of confirmed cases in the region to phase 2.



If there are more than 500 confirmed cases per day as they are now, it is possible to upgrade to 2.5 levels.



One of the requirements for the 2.5 stage upgrade is that the average number of domestic confirmed cases per day for a week is 400-500 or more, which has recently increased to 382.7 per day.



The government decides whether to further upgrade the distance step the day after tomorrow.



As the level goes up, small self-employed people are hurt, so the government's hard work is also great.



This is because in phase 2.5, general management facilities such as PC cafes, marts, and beauty businesses will also be closed after 9pm.



[Son Young-rae / Head of Strategic Planning Division, Central Accident Recovery Headquarters: The upgrade of the stage is a matter to decide by looking at those parts together in terms of causing social costs and somebody's sacrifice.



It is also a problem that the number of confirmed cases in the non-metropolitan area has recently increased.



This is because it is more difficult to secure dedicated treatment beds for severely ill patients than in the metropolitan area, and the number of remaining beds per region is only one digit across the non-metropolitan area.



[Sae-Kyun Jeong/Prime Minister: In the case of Gangwon, Honam, and Gyeongbuk, the number of secured beds is small, so if the number of confirmed



patients

increases in the region, there may be a shortage of beds at any time.]

The place explained that the operation rate is 54%, which is relatively easy.
