<Reporter> The

number of new corona 19 confirmed cases was counted as 707.

After the last 14 days, it has risen to 700 people again in 12 days.

The cumulative number of confirmed cases related to Daegu entertainment pubs increased by nearly 200.

In Chuncheon and Wonju, Gangwon-do, sporadic infections continue throughout the country, including infections through entertainment bars.

The first cumulative vaccination of the vaccine was 3.94 million, 7.7% of the population, and the second cumulative vaccination was 1.94 million, accounting for 3.8% of the population.

In the meantime, the government has come up with measures to ease quarantine in stages, such as lifting the limit on the number of private gatherings for those 14 days after vaccination.

From the next month, we have decided to exclude those who have received the first or more vaccinations from the number of direct family meetings.

If both grandparents have received more than the 1st vaccination, a maximum of 10 people can meet.

In addition, primary vaccinations can use welfare facilities for the elderly, such as welfare centers and senior citizens' halls.

More quarantine measures will be mitigated from July.

Those who have completed the second vaccination, i.e., vaccination, can meet freely as they are excluded from the standard of number of not only family gatherings but also various private gatherings.

Also, those who have completed the first vaccination and vaccination are excluded from the criteria for the number of people who participate in face-to-face religious activities such as worship during religious activities.

Those who have completed the vaccination can also run a choir or small group.

In addition, if you receive the vaccination even once, you do not need to wear a mask outdoors after July, unless a large number of people gather.

Additional quarantine after the end of September, when more than 70% of all citizens complete the first vaccination. The rules will be eased, but the relaxation of the obligation to wear an indoor mask will be reviewed after December.
