At a large livestock market in the metropolitan area, more than 60 employees and family members were confirmed to be corona19 at once.
Although they said they followed the quarantine regulations in their own way, many of the employees were working in a cramped workplace, so they couldn’t avoid group infection.

It is a livestock market where cattle and pigs are slaughtered and even auctioned for middle-aged wholesalers.
Here, 400 cattle and 3,000 pigs are slaughtered a day.
The slaughter is the third largest in the country, and 570 people work, including the employees of partner companies.
Here, two employees were diagnosed with Corona 19 on the 6th, and about 60 people, including 50 employees and their families, were confirmed during the entire inspection process.
However, 125 people are still waiting for the test results, and more than 250 people have been tested at their respective health centers.
Most of the 50 people who were confirmed in the first total inspection were employees of partner companies and worked at places where by-products of livestock products were washed.
The infection appears to have spread as they work in tight spaces.
In addition, more than 20 of the confirmed cases are foreign workers, and there is great concern about further spread.

The health authorities are conducting a thorough epidemiological investigation to determine the path and cause of the infection of the first two employees who were confirmed to be confirmed.
