New corona 19 confirmed cases have crossed the 1,000 mark for three consecutive days.
The number of confirmed cases is inevitable for the time being, as pre-emptive inspections in the metropolitan area to find hidden infected people are in full swing.
However, the government has repeatedly expressed its cautious stance, fearing the economic impact of raising the distance to the third stage.

First of all, please tell us the new confirmation status, right?

As of 0 o’clock today, 1,062 new cases are confirmed.
The number of patients is seldom decreasing, with 1,000 people for three consecutive days.
When looking at the route of infection, 1,036 people occurred in Korea, and 26 people came from abroad.
The average daily domestic outbreak in the past week is 934, and it has already reached the 3rd stage of distance.
Looking at the domestic outbreaks by region, the metropolitan area was upgraded to 2.5 stages on the 8th, and 10 days have passed, but the number of confirmed cases has risen to 700.
Seoul has 393, Gyeonggi 300 and Incheon 64 with 757 in the metropolitan area alone.
In the non-metropolitan area, Gyeongnam was the largest with 43 people.
Subsequently, there were confirmed cases in 16 provinces excluding Sejong, with 39 in Busan, 31 in Gyeongbuk, 30 in Chungbuk, and 27 in Jeju.
Of the 26 confirmed foreign inflows, 9 were confirmed during the quarantine stage.
The death toll was added by 11, and the cumulative amount was 645.
The number of patients with severe gastric disorders increased by 4 to 246.
The government believes that the number of confirmed cases temporarily increases due to preemptive inspections in the metropolitan area.
However, this is a strategy to reduce the number of confirmed cases as quickly as possible and is expected to take effect from this weekend.

The government is still cautious about raising the distance to the third stage, but is it preparing to take detailed steps in the third stage just in case?

The government plans to adjust detailed measures to minimize damage even if it is upgraded to three stages.
When it comes to stage 3, first the restaurant is considering allowing only packaging and delivery.
Cafes are already in operation, and restaurants are currently banned from eating in stores only after 9pm.
All multi-use facilities such as movie theaters, wedding halls, beauty days, and PC rooms will be closed.
Following this, we are discussing the direction of limiting the number of people while allowing the sale of daily necessities such as marts and convenience stores.
Even hypermarkets are holding on to allow the purchase of daily necessities.
Also, in the case of meetings, it is effective to reduce the number of 10 or more to 5 or more.
This meeting also includes small weddings of around 10 people.
When these three-step detailed guidelines are implemented, enormous social and economic damage is expected.
It is estimated that the number of multi-use facilities that are banned or partially restricted in the third phase will reach 2.30 million nationwide and 900,000 only in the metropolitan area.
That is why the government is cautious about upgrading to the third level.
At this stage, I will try to block the fashion somehow.
Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun said at today’s critical script meeting whether or not to upgrade to the third stage, “we will prepare carefully but make bold decisions when it is deemed necessary.”
