As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, there were 100,000 new confirmed cases across the country today (7th).



The Central Quarantine Countermeasures Headquarters announced that as of 00:00 today, the number of confirmed cases of Corona 19 increased by 105,507, bringing the total to 29,89,128.



The number of new confirmed cases today is 5,159 fewer than yesterday (11,666 people).



The number of confirmed cases has decreased compared to yesterday due to the decrease in weekend diagnostic tests.



The number of new confirmed cases today is 1.43 times the number of the 31st of last month (73,559 people) a week ago, and 1.61 times the number of the 24th of the last month (65,372 people) two weeks ago.



The doubling phenomenon, in which the number of new confirmed cases doubles in one week, has eased from the end of last month, but the multiplier has slightly increased over the past week.



The number of patients with severe severe cases was 297, 16 fewer than yesterday (313).



The number of confirmed COVID-19 patients who died yesterday was 27, 18 fewer than the previous day (45).



The cumulative death toll is 25,263, and the cumulative fatality rate of COVID-19 is 0.12%.



Quarantine authorities and experts believe that the peak of the new corona 19 outbreak is likely to form within one to two weeks of this month, or at the latest in this month, and then turn into a downward trend.



However, during the holiday season, the number of tests decreases and the number of confirmed cases decreases, so the holiday season is considered a variable, and even if the peak is broken, the epidemic itself is expected to continue for a rather long time.
