South Korea, which took the first step in 'With Corona', what to do in case of a surge in the number of confirmed cases?

<Anchor> It

is certainly nice to be able to get out of an uncomfortable life because of the corona, but it is true that there are concerns as much as expectations. Let's summarize this content with Cho Dong-chan, a medical professional reporter.

[Cho Dong-chan / Medical reporter (specialist): Even if the vaccination completion rate was high, with Corona, an increase in the number of confirmed cases was unavoidable immediately after daily recovery. But it's different. In Singapore and Portugal, the vaccination completion rate is over 80%. Portugal increased slightly and then started to decline, while Singapore continues to soar. Portugal has 1 million confirmed cases and 18,000 cumulative deaths, but Singapore was a corona-free country with only 160,000 and 280, respectively. It is also called the paradox of a corona-clean country because the spread can increase in countries with few confirmed cases. Korea is also a clean Corona country, so we can't be vigilant.]

[Cho Dong-chan / medical reporter (specialist): If there are signs that the number of confirmed cases will increase and the damage to human life will increase, it is saying that the daily recovery will be stopped and the emergency system will be operated. This is also the case when the Corona intensive care unit and inpatient ward are more than 80% full, or when the number of severely severely ill patients or deaths increases. It is calculated that it can handle up to 15,000 confirmed cases per day, but it is important to be careful not to do that.]

[Cho Dong-chan / Medical reporter (specialist): Denmark is the country that receives the most attention.

Feature articles as well as dissertations are published.

In Denmark, people are joking that even if the 2m distance disappears, citizens will walk 5m apart.

This means that individual voluntary quarantine is more important than government coercion.

And Denmark, I did a lot of corona tests.

Because it has 20 million more cases with a population 8 times smaller than Spain, it is because they recognized tests that cannot be easily done at home, such as rapid antigen kit tests.

This is because even if the accuracy is a little low, doing it frequently can be a great help in preventing infection.

We only accept PCR at the hospital now, but it doesn't fit with Corona.]
