The corona 19’third epidemic’ has passed its peak and is gradually decreasing.

As of 0 o’clock on the 10th, 24 people increased from the previous day, but it is maintaining the level of 600 people for three consecutive days.

Two weeks ago, the average number of confirmed cases per day exceeded 900,

Last week, nearly 200 people fell to 700 people.

In addition, the’Infection Reproduction Index’, which indicates the degree to which one confirmed person infects additionally, dropped from ‘1’ two weeks ago to ‘0.88’ last week.

The quarantine authorities aim to reduce the average number of confirmed cases per day to 400 to 500 per day before the end of the current social distancing period.

After that, we plan to ease the ban on grouping for singing practice and indoor sports facilities in the metropolitan area.

However, there are still voices of concern as large and small group infections such as religious facilities, family gatherings and saunas are still continuing.

As the reinforced social distancing continued for more than a month, there were complaints of economic pain and fatigue in various parts of society,

This week is expected to be a major watershed to determine whether the spread of the corona 19’third epidemic’ will definitely be curtailed.
