In Busan, corona19 confirmed patients with unknown infection routes are steadily appearing. There is high concern about’blinking infection’, accounting for 13-20% of new confirmed cases.
As of the afternoon of the 27th, the city of Busan announced that 33 new corona19 confirmed patients came out and the cumulative number of patients was 1,725. At Cheil Nara Nursing Hospital, three additional patients, including workers and patients, were confirmed. There were 43 cumulative confirmed cases related to this hospital. One patient was confirmed as well at Inchang Nursing Hospital, and the cumulative confirmed number was 146. In the case of Good Fruit Church in Geumjeong-gu, an additional one was confirmed as a result of a total examination of 38 members. There are 10 cumulative confirmed cases related to this church, including those in Gyeongnam.
New confirmed cases, many family members
Poetry “Strictly Keep Distance”
Two relatives of the person who had previously been confirmed confirmed were examined at the temporary screening laboratory and confirmed that day. In this regard, an official from Busan City said, “The temporary screening test center performs a group test, so the results are late.”
Most of the remaining new confirmed cases were family-related infections, but the route of infection was not confirmed in 8 patients (24%). This is a case where a person has been diagnosed with suspicious symptoms while visiting a clinic. Since last week, the number of cases of unclear infection has reached 13-20% of all new confirmed cases.
The increase in the rate of unclear infection route in new confirmed cases is the result of a large increase in the number of people visiting clinics. However, it also means that’quiet propagation’ outside the quarantine network is being carried out widely in the community. In particular, if you have been diagnosed as such and conducted an epidemiologic investigation, most of your family members have already been infected. This is why there is no large-scale n-th infection in Busan recently, but the scale of new confirmed cases is not decreasing due to the large number of infections between families.
Ahn Byung-seon, head of the Citizens’ Prevention Promotion Team of Busan City, said, “If the rate of unclear infection path exceeds 10%, it means that’blinking infection’ occurs.
Four more deaths were added, and the cumulative death toll of Corona 19 was 41. Two were in their 80s, and one in their 70s and 60s. It is the first time in Busan that more than 4 people have died a day.
Meanwhile, 29 additional confirmed cases were found in Gyeongnam and 1 in Ulsan. In particular, 20 confirmed cases occurred in Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam over the past three days from the 25th.
