[사회]Four hundred people in a row for four days…Can we break the tail of the third fashion?

Increased travel volume due to various gatherings and outings in spring

With the third corona 19 epidemic still rising, the number of new confirmed cases recorded 400 for four consecutive days.

This is because many restrictions on business hours for multi-use facilities such as public baths have been lifted and infections are continuing around living spaces.

Although the government is tightening the reins of quarantine, the risk of the spread of Corona 19 is rather increasing.

Immediately after the Lunar New Year holiday, the number of new confirmed cases rose to the 600 level, but the number of new confirmed cases has since dropped to the 300-400 level, but it is showing an increase again recently.

It was in the mid-400s for four days in a row.

However, there seems to be no sharp way to catch the third trend.

First of all, it is difficult to prevent all kinds of gatherings and going out in spring.

Despite the recent trend, small-scale group infections are continuing, centering on living spaces such as small gatherings, restaurants, public baths, and entertainment facilities.

Moreover, the fatigue of distancing is high to reinforce quarantine.

[백순영 / 가톨릭대 의대 명예교수 : 사실 지금 수도권 2단계, 비수도권 1.5단계를 더 강화시키기는 우리 국민들의 방역에 대한 수용성 문제 때문에 어려울 것으로 보이고요. 또 5인 이상 모임 금지도 계속 유지하고 있는 상황이거든요.]

It is also a bad thing that the controversy over discrimination and human rights violations while promoting the mandatory diagnostic test for foreign workers was withdrawn.

There is no answer except for the vaccine.

The quarantine authorities are focusing on stabilizing the current Corona 19 situation ahead of vaccination in the second quarter.
