It is predicted that the number of confirmed cases will increase further as the recent national infection trend and the quarantine authorities are actively conducting tests.
We will connect with reporters to learn more. Reporter Kim Hye-eun!
The number of corona19 patients in Korea recorded a record of 1,000 for four days in a row, and the number of confirmed cases is expected to increase further in the future?
[기자]
That’s right.
The quarantine authorities predicted that the number of confirmed cases will increase for the time being, as the infection trend is large and aggressive diagnostic tests are being conducted.
Yesterday, there were 1,53 confirmed cases and 1,29 local cases.
There are five days in the past week that have exceeded a thousand.
The infection reproduction index exceeds 1.2.
This means that one infected person infects 1.2 people.
As there are many sources of infection in the community, the scale of infection is expected to increase further.
In particular, the quarantine authorities are launching aggressive diagnostic tests.
As of today, 286 people appear at the temporary screening test center installed in the metropolitan area.
[앵커]
Yesterday, it is said that the number of confirmed cases increased a lot in non-metropolitan areas, but it is an atmosphere that spreads in all directions?
[기자]
Yesterday, the number of confirmed cases in the metropolitan area was close to 700, and the number of confirmed cases was not broken for the first time in the non-capital area.
The number of confirmed patients in the nursing hospital increased by 103 people a day yesterday.
More than 30 confirmed cases were found in Busan and Gyeongnam, and 24 were added in Jeju Island.
As the number of confirmed cases is increasing, the number of serious patients and deaths is increasing.
Yesterday, 14 people died from Corona 19.
The number of severe or severe patients also increased to 275 with 29 additional patients.
[앵커]
The number of confirmed cases is soaring, but the treatment beds for severely ill patients are still insufficient?
[기자]
There are only 48 hospital beds in the country that can be admitted immediately to patients with severe illness.
This is the number that the Central Accident Control Center identified as of yesterday.
Of the 573 severely ill beds nationwide, only 8.4% remain.
In particular, in the case of the metropolitan area with a large number of confirmed cases, 13 are all including 8 in Seoul, 4 in Gyeonggi and 1 in Incheon.
As of yesterday, only 12 treatment beds for’quasi-critical patients’ were left among the patients, with the possibility of improving or worsening severely.
The quarantine authorities are strengthening the quarantine guidelines to curb the current spread.
Hold’em pub, which was considered a representative blind spot, is suspended for 10 days from today, where you can enjoy card games while drinking.
For ski resorts in the non-metropolitan area, we plan to request the suspension of business after 9pm.
