293 new confirmed by 6 pm… Tomorrow Announcement of Distance Adjustment

At Hanyang University Hospital in Seongdong-gu, Seoul, on the morning of the 30th, staff, medical staff, and citizens are standing in line to receive a new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) test. News 1

– The number of new coronavirus infections (Corona 19) in Korea has continued to reach 400 for the third day, and as of 6 pm on the 30th, a total of 239 new cases were counted.

According to the quarantine authorities and local governments such as the Seoul Metropolitan Government, a total of 293 new confirmed cases were confirmed positive for Corona 19 in the country from 0 o’clock to 6 PM on that day. It is 51 fewer than the 344 total at the same time the day before. There seems to be an impact on the weekend when the number of inspections decreases.

It is expected that the number of new confirmed cases to be announced as of 0 o’clock on the 31st will exceed 300 as there are about 6 hours left until midnight when the count is closed.

By provincial and provincial, the area where the confirmed cases were confirmed is Seoul and Gyeonggi-do 98 people each, Busan and Incheon each 20, Gyeongbuk 16, Gyeongnam 12, Daegu 8, Chungnam and Gangwon each 5, Ulsan and Gwangju each 4, Chungbuk 2 Myung, Sejong, etc. 216 (73.7%) in the metropolitan area and 77 (26.3%) in the non-metropolitan area.

Of the 17 cities and provinces nationwide, there have not been confirmed cases in Daejeon, Jeonbuk, Jeonnam, and Jeju.

In the last week (1.24~30), the number of new confirmed cases per day was 392 → 437 → 349 → 559 → 497 → 469 → 458, with an average of 452 cases per day. In addition to the group infection initiated by the IM Mission, the case of a new group outbreak involving university hospitals and nursing facilities was the impact.

Accordingly, the government delayed the announcement of the plan to adjust distance (the 2.5th stage of the metropolitan area and the 2nd stage of the non-metropolitan area) originally scheduled for the 29th.

Even if the quarantine authorities extended the “prohibition of private gatherings with more than 5 people”, taking into account the damage of small business owners, etc., the quarantine authorities took a step toward easing the distance by one step. I am struggling repeatedly.
