[사회]416 new confirmed people… re-enter the standard of 2.5 steps of distance

[앵커]

On the first holiday after easing the distance, the number of new confirmed cases hit 400 on the second day.

However, there is a growing sense of crisis as the number of holiday checks has decreased and there is a possibility that the effects of distance easing from this week will appear in earnest.

You said that the number of confirmed cases, which went up to 600 during the week, has decreased due to holidays?

As of 0 o’clock today, there are 416 new cases.

It was 32 people less than the previous day.

However, it is difficult to say that the spreading trend has declined as the effect of the decrease in the number of inspections on the weekend was reflected.

The infection route is 391 people in Korea and 25 people in foreign countries.

When looking at the outbreaks in Korea by region, only 311 in the metropolitan area, including 120 in Seoul, 170 in Gyeonggi-do, and 21 in Incheon.

Of these, 59 were positive at the temporary screening test in the metropolitan area.

In the non-metropolitan area, 11 in Busan, 10 in Chungnam, 8 in Jeonnam, and 7 in Jeonbuk and Gyeongnam respectively.

The number of deaths from Corona 19 increased by 4 to 1,557, and the number of severely ill patients decreased by 1 to 155.

Among these, the average number of confirmed cases in Korea per day for the last week, which is a key indicator of the adjustment of the distance stage, has increased to 455.

It is a state of re-entry between 400 and 500 people, based on the 2.5 step distance.

The quarantine authorities believe that infections with family members and acquaintances that occurred during the Lunar New Year holiday contributed to the increase.

In addition, the virus is spreading from abroad, which is deepening the quarantine authorities.

The government is scheduled to hold a script meeting at 3 pm a little later.

The government is reviewing measures to reinforce quarantine measures such as distancing if the spreading trend continues, but plans to keep an eye on the outbreak this week.
