Today (29th), the number of newly confirmed coronaviruses is expected to be in the late 300 level.
Compared to the 500 people who went back and forth until last weekend, the number is a little lower, but group infections continue to occur throughout everyday life.
In particular, as the number of citizens going on spring outings increases, the quarantine authorities are on the verge of increasing the number of confirmed cases next month.
This is reporter Jeong Ban-seok.
<Reporter> There
are 340 new corona19 confirmed cases nationwide per day, counted by 9 o'clock last night.
The number of new confirmed cases to be announced today is expected to be in the second half of the 300 range, down 116 from the same time the day before.
However, we cannot be relieved as group infections have continued in university districts, pubs, and restaurants.
At Sogang University, one student in the dormitory was confirmed four days ago, and then four more were confirmed, and access to the school was restricted for the second day.
Regarding a raw fish restaurant in Seo-gu, Daejeon, where 16 people were infected, an emergency took place when Mr. A, who was confirmed after visiting this place, was identified as an employee of a nearby emotional bar.
[Jeong Hae-gyo/Daejeon City Health and Welfare Bureau Director: It is similar to a common emotional bar where people drink and dance together.
(Due to concerns about the spread of infection), a ban on gatherings was issued for two weeks.] It
has been confirmed that over 1,000 visitors have visited the bar for 8 days from the 19th.
The quarantine authorities contacted the confirmed person and, even after receiving inspection instructions, charged Mr. A, who went to work at the bar, and required that visitors to the bar to undergo a corona 19 test.
The quarantine authorities reported that there is great concern about re-proliferation next month, when religious events and spring outings increase, and requested that the basic quarantine rules be strictly followed in daily life.
