Of the 680 new confirmed cases, 650 are domestic outbreaks, excluding 30 foreign patients.



By region, there were 423 from the metropolitan area, including 225 in Seoul, and 227 from the non-metropolitan area, including 46 in Ulsan.



The average number of confirmed cases last week was 678, a slight increase from 645 two weeks ago.



The government repeatedly demanded that the spread of Corona 19 may change depending on the situation this week, which was set as a special quarantine management week, and to follow the quarantine rules well.



[Kwon Deok-cheol/Minister of Health and Welfare: Until the second half of this week, depending on whether it is spread or stable, a plan to adjust the distance for the next three weeks will be decided.]



Yesterday, 22,700 people received the first vaccination a day, and the first cumulative vaccination was 2.8 million. There are over a thousand.



The number of reported adverse reactions after vaccination increased by 433, including 5 death reports.



Contact visits at nursing hospitals and nursing facilities are also expected to be allowed.



The government said it plans to allow contact visits under limited conditions for so-called'vaccinated people', two weeks after all the vaccines were given.



In nursing hospitals and nursing facilities where vaccinations have been inoculated more than 75%, measures are being reviewed to increase the interval between preemptive tests and reduce tests.



In the meantime, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education announced that it will conduct PCR tests for students and faculty members who want to go to school starting next month, and introduce limited self-test kits to boarding schools and sports schools.
