[사진 = 연합뉴스]– As the number of new corona 19 confirmed cases increases, concerns about reproliferation are growing. According to the Central Defense Response Headquarters on the 12th, as of 0 o’clock on New Year’s Day, there were 403 new cases of Corona 19 in Korea. The number of people decreased by more than 100 from the previous day, which was 504, but this is due to the effect of the holiday season. In fact, the number of examinations through the screening clinic on the 11th was 22,3361, which was less than 16,624 on the 10th.
The government held a meeting of the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters on the 13th, the day after the Lunar New Year holidays, to decide whether to adjust the current distancing stage. The ban on private gatherings of more than 5 people nationwide and business restrictions after 9pm in the metropolitan area and 10pm in the non-metropolitan area will be discussed and confirmed. The distancing adjustment plan, etc., will be announced through a heavy script briefing at 11 am on the same day.
It is known that the government is paying attention to the deterioration of major quarantine indicators, such as the number of new confirmed cases increasing to 500 and the infection reproductive index in the metropolitan area again exceeding 1, making last-minute efforts to adjust the distance. Kwon Deok-cheol, the first deputy chief of the company’s scriptwriters, said, “The government heard many experts’ opinions through two public debates and the Life Prevention Committee, and communicated with related ministries and local governments as well as related associations.”
