Government “IM Mission in the process of preparing a countermeasure for infection…it should refrain from congestion”

yunhap news-The quarantine authorities announced that they are preparing separate quarantine guidelines for the spread of COVID-19 group infection, centering on the unauthorized educational facilities of IM Mission.

Sohn Young-rae, head of the Central Accident Control Headquarters, social strategy group, met with reporters on the 26th and said, “I am very nervous because a large group infection spreads nationwide while the trend of the third epidemic continues to decrease.”

Regarding the criticism that’unauthorized facilities are in the blind spot for quarantine’, Sohn said, “On today (26th), there was a related discussion at the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasure Headquarters about unauthorized facilities related to religious facilities, and related measures were discussed with the Ministry of Education and Ministry of Culture He said, “We are discussing issues under management and supervision through the local government.”

The quarantine authorities will discuss with relevant ministries by the afternoon of this day, and then explain detailed guidelines on the 27th.

Captain Son ordered thorough quarantine management not only for this IM mission, but also for the entire religious facility where worship was held.

In view of the recent infection pattern, the quarantine authorities report that the risk of transmission of infection in face-to-face worship allowed under the conditions of compliance with the quarantine guidelines is low.

Rather, group infections occur mainly through small groups such as Bible study and hymns, voiced prayers, and choir activities.

“Even if you are wearing a mask, it is estimated that the discharge of salivary droplets increases during the process of singing and praying together, and spreading occurs.” He asked.

In addition, he explained that it was forbidden to provide accommodation or meals in prayer halls and monasteries.

The previous day, 127 confirmed cases were found at IEM International School in Daejeon, an unauthorized educational facility operated by IM Mission.

In addition, 12 students were confirmed at Joseph TCS International School in Suji-gu, Yongin, operated by this mission, and 31 related to TCS Ace International School in Gwangju.

In Hongcheon, Gangwon-do, 38 people, including 37 students related to the IM Mission, who visited the local religious facilities were confirmed, and there is concern about spreading them nationwide.
