30 people, including users and workers, were confirmed at a day care facility for the elderly in Namwon, Jeollabuk-do.

Also, due to the delta mutation, the vaccine prevention effect is about 60% It was analyzed that the cause of the increase in the number of confirmed cases was the decline in immunity and the lack of vaccination or a decrease in immunity due to the completion of vaccination a long time ago.

The government has decided to announce the final plan for the gradual recovery of daily life as scheduled.

Even if the number of confirmed cases increases, it is impossible to delay the start of daily recovery on the 1st of the next month.

In the final plan, the quarantine measures are divided into three stages. First, the number of people at the meeting will be increased to 10 people including those who have completed vaccination, and the multi-use facility will be open 24 hours.

Regarding the vaccine pass target, it has been decided that if only the basic vaccination is completed, the booster shot will be recognized as a completed vaccination even if no additional vaccination is received.
