The outbreak of collective infection in a public bath in Jinju City, Gyeongnam continues.

On the day after the first confirmed cases, more than 90 were confirmed, and 40 were added on the third day, and the number of related confirmed cases exceeded 130.

Not all contacts have been tested, so the number of confirmed cases is likely to increase.

Most of the confirmed cases are people living in Jinju, and health officials know that the infection has not spread to other areas.

Gyeongnam-do reinforced its quarantine rules after the number of confirmed patients in public bathhouses.

Along with the user’s fever test, it is mandatory to check the suspected symptoms of Corona 19, and an electronic access list such as a QR code must be prepared.

All baths in the Jinju area have been subject to an administrative order prohibiting gathering, but it has not been expanded to the entire metropolitan area.

Gyeongnam Province once again advised that if there are any suspicious symptoms, avoid using the bathhouse and undergo a diagnostic test.
