A large-scale group infection came out at the eastern detention center in Seoul?
[기자]
Yes, there were 185 additional corona19 confirmed cases from the eastern detention center in Seoul yesterday.
It turns out that 184 prisoners included 1 employee.
This is the result of a recent full-scale inspection of 420 employees and 2,410 prisoners by the Ministry of Justice, a top institution.
Former President Lee Myung-bak, who was imprisoned here after being sentenced to 17 years in the Supreme Court last month, is known to have received a negative decision.
The first confirmed cases here in the eastern detention center occurred around the middle of last month.
Until the 16th, 17 people were confirmed.
It is known that the confirmed cases were mainly from the new admissions building.
The quarantine authorities once again admitted asymptomatic infected people,
Epidemiological investigations are being conducted on the basis of the fact that it led to the outbreak.
It was also confirmed that some of the confirmed prisoners had been in the Seoul Northern District Court for five days from the 14th.
The court is carrying out emergency quarantine and is currently working on identifying contacts.

You said there are several confirmed cases in nursing homes and hospitals?
[기자]
Yes, at the nursing hospital in Bucheon, Gyeonggi-do, 17 more were confirmed, and the cumulative confirmed cases that occurred within 10 days totaled 134.
Of these, five patients were waiting to be transferred to the quarantine treatment bed, but the condition worsened and died.
After cohort quarantine, the hospital has separated about 100 patients, including confirmed patients and negative patients, in 21 wards and 144 beds, excluding all those who took measures.
However, due to the lack of isolated beds, 87 confirmed patients are still waiting for action.
A nursing hospital in Guro-gu, Seoul, has had 10 additional confirmed yesterday, and the cumulative number of confirmed cases since the last 15 days totaled 31.
At the nursing hospital in Goyang, Gyeonggi-do, three additional people were tested positive and 40 were confirmed.
The quarantine authorities analyzed that out of 26 cases of recent group infections, two-thirds came from nursing homes and nursing homes.
In particular, 73% of the cases were spread through workers or carers, so we asked them to refrain from private meetings as much as possible.
[앵커]
Infections such as religious facilities are also continuing?
[기자]
Yes, yesterday, new cases of group infection emerged, centering on religious facilities.
An additional 12 people were confirmed in a small church in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, and 13 people were infected.
At the church in Yeoju, 14 new members were confirmed and classified as a new case of group infection.
Among the existing cases, 9 additional people were confirmed yesterday at the church in Seongbuk-gu, Seoul, resulting in a total of 24 infected people.
At the construction site in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, four additional people were confirmed, and 92 people were cumulatively infected within a week.
At the golf course in Pocheon, Gyeonggi-do, six more were confirmed yesterday, and the cumulative number of confirmed cases was 13.
As group infections continue to spread throughout the metropolitan area, sporadic group infections are spreading.
Excluding two days from the 12th, there have been 1,000 confirmations a day.
The government is contemplating whether to raise the distance to three levels.
So that the epidemic of infection is as low as possible even at this stage,
It is necessary to refrain from going out and gathering and wearing a mask as well as wearing it properly.
