In Daegu, the number of confirmed cases surged as church-related group infections and infections with unknown routes were repeated.

There have been over 700 local infections in the last month.

The cumulative confirmed cases reached 8,000 in no time.

The city of Daegu has intensively inspected religious facilities and expanded anonymous tests to search for so-called’hidden infected people’ that are not revealed by epidemiological investigations.

Since the 22nd of last month, 8,000 people have been anonymously examined to find 23 confirmed cases, and 7 hidden infections have also been identified.

A strong distancing effect is coming out little by little, but small group infections are still repeated.

Daegu and Gyeongbuk, which suffered from the infection that began at the Daegu Church in Shincheonji earlier last year, are still experiencing a difficult time.
