The number of people increased by 2 from the previous day, and the second day, it has recorded a record of 400 people.

As a result, the cumulative domestic confirmed cases exceeded 100,000.

It has been about 1 year and 2 months, 430 days since the first confirmed case was released on January 20 last year.

The route of infection was 419 people in Korea and 11 people from overseas.

When looking at domestic outbreaks by region, there are also many metropolitan areas.

There are 283 new patients in the metropolitan area, including 125 in Seoul, 147 in Gyeonggi, and 11 in Incheon.

Of these, 68 were tested positive at the temporary screening test in the metropolitan area.

Outside the metropolitan area, Gyeongnam has the largest number with 30, Gangwon with 27, Busan with 20, and Daegu and Chungbuk with 17 each.

The death toll increased by two more, and the number of seriously ill patients was 111, the same as yesterday.

The vaccination status was also released.

After vaccination, 78 additional reports of adverse reactions were added.

Of these, 3 cases were suspected of anaphylaxis, 1 case was severely suspected, and the rest were common symptoms such as muscle pain and headache.

At today’s script meeting, if you have any suspicious symptoms, you are asked to undergo a diagnostic test right away, right?

Gang-tae, the 1st General Coordinator of the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters, all spoke at the main script meeting today.

In the last two weeks, the rate of infection due to personal contact was 30% of the total, and the rate of investigation of the infection route exceeded a quarter.

At the same time, if I had any suspicious symptoms, I asked for an immediate diagnostic test.

Jinju’s bathhouse and the handball club in Cheongju pointed out that even suspicious symptoms such as coughing, chills, and fever did not undergo diagnostic tests, leading to group infection.

On the other hand, it was revealed that if a high fever was confirmed while living by following the usual quarantine regulations, no additional confirmed cases were found.

He stressed that delaying being tested, even with symptoms, puts family, co-workers and neighbors at risk.

The government is also expected to announce a distancing adjustment tomorrow, which will take effect next week.

This is because the current social distancing and ban on private gatherings for more than 5 people will only apply until the coming Sunday.

However, it is expected that it will be difficult to alleviate distance or apply a new distance system, as the amount of movement in spring is slow and there are still 3~400 confirmed cases.
