Why did you say "it will be decided in a week" about China, the 'final variable'?

Let's summarize indoor mask mitigation and Chinese variables with Cho Dong-chan, a medical reporter.

[Cho Dong-chan, medical reporter (specialist): Yes, it was the last 2 days since the PCR test for immigrants from China was made mandatory.

So far, 7,465 people have entered and currently 357 people are in quarantine because they are positive.

Since the quarantine period is one week, there are people who are released from quarantine on the 9th and tomorrow, so the situation of influx from China has turned around, but there are no new mutations, and the domestic situation is fine.

It wasn't a big threat.

From today (the 8th), the Chinese bar is unlocked in earnest, and this can be judged by observing the maximum quarantine period for a week.]

[Cho Dong-chan, medical reporter (specialist): The quarantine authorities are more concerned about Hong Kong than China.

There were 722 short-term residents in China who received a preliminary voiceover in three days.

Among them, 114 people (16%) were trained in Korea.

This 16% may have forged documents in China, and incubation patients, that is, when tested in China, the amount of virus is low, so it is negative, and after entry, the amount increases and turns into positive.

The quarantine authorities are looking at the probability of incubation period, but they are not very concerned even if it is the probability of counterfeiting.

This is because all PCR tests are being conducted in Korea.

However, like China, corona patients are rapidly increasing in Hong Kong, but it is not possible to filter out patients in the incubation period because only tests are conducted before entry.

However, since 1,000 people entered Hong Kong every day from a month ago, there was no problem, so we are going to keep an eye on it carefully.]

[Cho Dong-chan, medical reporter (specialist): The number of confirmed corona patients in Korea is decreasing, but the rate of confirmation in the high-risk group over the age of 60 is not decreasing.

Even if you completely return to your daily life, quarantine for high-risk groups will continue to be important.]
