One day after the number of new corona19 confirmed patients fell to 300, it increased to 400 again. This is because everyday infections are continuing, such as workplaces, restaurants, and various meetings.

There were 418 new confirmed cases of Corona 19 that occurred yesterday (5th), and 404 were domestically infected, excluding 14 foreign inflows.
Among them, 317 confirmed cases came out of Seoul, Gyeonggi, and other metropolitan areas, accounting for about two-thirds of all domestic infections.
The reason that the number of new confirmed patients rarely decreases from 3 to 400 people a day is because infections continue in everyday life such as workplaces, restaurants, and various small groups.
In Dongducheon, Gyeonggi Province, 16 additional people were tested positive in a preemptive preemptive test for foreigners in the region, and about 10 people, including foreign employees, were confirmed in a glass manufacturer in Eumseong, North Chungcheong Province.
With sporadic outbreaks continuing, vaccination is accelerating.
Yesterday, 67,000 people received additional vaccinations a day, and so far 296,000 people have completed the first vaccination.
About 1,300 reports of suspected adverse reactions came in a day, and 2,883 cases have been received so far.
By type, minor cases, such as headache and fever, accounted for the majority with 2,800 cases, and 11 cases of anaphylaxis, a severe systemic allergic reaction, were added, increasing to 24 in total.
There have been 7 deaths after vaccination so far, and health authorities are investigating the causality of the side effects of the vaccine.
For sustainable quarantine, the government will streamline the distancing system to four stages, and to announce a new distancing reorganization plan, which has eased the ban on private meetings and business hours, is finalized and announced two weeks later.
