[사회]Nearly 1,200 confirmed cases related to Seoul’s Eastern Detention Center… pay attention to the results of the 7th total inspection

[앵커]

With up to 1,180 confirmed cases related to the Eastern Detention Center in Seoul, it was recorded as the second largest group infection ever, surpassing the size of the Sarangjeil Church infection.

It seems that the results of the 7th total inspection at Dongbu Detention Center that took place yesterday will be released within today.

Concerns are raised that the scale of infection can reach 1,200 people as double-digit infection continues.

Let’s connect the reporters who are in the eastern detention center. Reporter Jung Hyun-woo!

Yesterday, the 7th total inspection was conducted at the Dongbu Detention Center in Seoul, but the results are still there?

[기자]

Yesterday, at the 7th total test, more than 570 prisoners and employees who were tested negative last time were tested.

The result is still.

However, the results of yesterday’s tests are likely to come out today, as the results of all tests came out the day after the test, except for the second total test out of the six total tests.

Just as more than 600 people were tested and 70 were confirmed at the last 6th full test, it is noteworthy whether double-digit confirmation will continue this time.

The number of confirmed cases related to the Seoul Eastern Detention Center so far is 1,180, including family and acquaintances.

Yesterday, three prisoners, who were classified as undecided in the last test, received a final positive test, and one employee of the Eastern Detention Center and one transporter to the Southern Prison were confirmed.

It is the second largest ever, surpassing the 1,173 confirmed cases of Sarangjeil Church, which had a large-scale infection in August last year.

Meanwhile, the number of confirmed cases at correctional facilities nationwide, including the eastern detention center, has reached the 1,200 range.

As confirmations continued in various places, the Ministry of Justice conducted a full inspection of 43 correctional facilities nationwide until yesterday.

It is said that 39,000 prisoners and 12,000 employees were tested negative.

Group infection cases continue in the metropolitan area, so let’s summarize the related news.

[기자]

There is a continuing trend that 70% of new cases of Corona 19 in Korea come from the metropolitan area.

As of 0 o’clock today, the number of confirmed cases in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon per day was counted as 421.

There have also been cases of group infections in everyday life spaces such as shopping centers and workplaces.

First of all, confirmation was continued in hospitals that are vulnerable to infection.

At a nursing facility in Guro-gu, Seoul, four more people were tested positive than yesterday, and the number of related infections increased to 229.

On the 3rd, an additional 10 people were confirmed at Suwon City Hospital, where the first confirmed person was confirmed.

In Incheon, 22 confirmed cases were confirmed at Michuhol-gu shopping center and Bupyeong-gu nursing home, which were tied to the same group infection case.

Among them, 8 were confirmed related to shopping centers and 14 were related to nursing homes.

Rectal infections are also increasing in scale.

On the 5th, a meat processing company in Yangju, Gyeonggi Province, where the first confirmed person was confirmed, while investigating contacts, 17 additional people were tested positive and the infection scale increased to 64.

The Yongin city manufacturer also confirmed 9 additional patients, and the cumulative number of patients is 10.

As such, the fact that the rate of confirmed cases with unknown routes exceeds 25% seems to be a concern.
