As of 0:00 today, there are 469 new cases.

It was reduced by 28 people from the previous day, maintaining the level of 400 people for two consecutive days.

Looking at the path of infection, domestic outbreaks were 445 and foreign inflows were 24.

By region, there were 109 domestic infections in Seoul, 129 in Gyeonggi and 18 in Incheon, with 256 in the metropolitan area alone.

Of these, 70 were confirmed at the temporary screening inspection office in the metropolitan area.

In the non-metropolitan area, Gwangju, followed by Gwangju TCS International School, had the largest number of confirmed cases at Antioch Church with 54.

This was followed by 41 from Gyeongbuk, 34 from Busan, and 15 from Gyeongnam.

Nine out of 24 foreign inflows were confirmed during the quarantine stage.

The number of people who died from Corona 19 increased by 13 to a cumulative 1,399.

The number of patients with severe gastric disorders decreased by 12 to 239.

The government is in a position that the spread of the virus must be curtailed ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday and the corona 19 vaccination next month.

However, as the uncertainty continued, the government, which was considering easing distancing, delayed the announcement until the weekend.

In particular, the key question is whether the recent increase is a temporary phenomenon caused by IM missions.

Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun said at a critical script meeting this morning that he will observe the corona 19 situation with increasing uncertainty and make a careful decision.
