[정치][현장영상] Prime Minister Jeong “It is a good way to get a preemptive examination for one member of the family”

The Corona 19 Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasure Headquarters meeting is currently being held at the Seoul Government Complex, presided over by Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun.

Let’s listen to all the comments of Prime Minister Chung’s meeting a while ago.

Many facilities, which had been restricted in operation, reopened yesterday.

People who have been to the gym since dawn and sweat after a long time, and those who sit in cafes and chat with friends, show that their daily lives have recovered a little.

However, Corona 19 still threatens us in every corner of our unseen everyday life.

In the last week, outbreaks have declined, but infections from contact with confirmed patients have risen to 45%.

It is mainly spread through family, acquaintances, and co-workers.

If the number of infections increases in daily life, the number of confirmed cases may rise again at any time.

Moreover, if the situation worsens before and after Lunar New Year’s Day, we are bound to be on the defensive again in the difficult fight against Corona.

That’s why we can’t slow down our alertness until we fully regain our daily life.

Unfortunately, the closer you are to infectious diseases, the more alert you need to be.

We urge you to protect important people around you by practicing thorough quarantine regulations.

The home also cannot be completely free from COVID-19.

If you have any suspicious symptoms, please avoid contact with grandparents, grandmothers, and children who live with you at home and get an examination immediately.

It is also a good way to check for infections in your home, even if you take a pre-examination for one family member in Seoul.

Schools and welfare facilities are frequently closed due to Corona 19, and everyone is struggling, but this time is more painful for the disabled who desperately need care.

According to a survey conducted by the National Human Rights Commission at the end of last year, one in five parents with developmental disabilities quit their job to care for their children.

Last month, a special school was closed and a student with a developmental disability who was alone at home died in a fire.

In preparation for this situation, the government has continued to expand emergency care support.

However, there are many people who did not know this well in the field and said that they did not receive the benefits, and there are requests for further expansion of support.

If the disaster is more severe for the socially underprivileged, the eyes and ears of the government ought to be turned more toward them.

Please actively promote services for the disabled, such as emergency activity support, and make up for any deficiencies or blind spots.

Thank you.
