Group infections in elderly-related facilities such as nursing hospitals are serious nationwide.

In Busan, there are places where group infections have recurred?

[기자]

Yes, it is.

At Haetrak Nursing Hospital, Mandeok-dong, Buk-gu, Busan, the group infection recurred in about 50 days.

On October 14, the nursing hospital was confirmed confirmed by 52 patients and workers at once.

The same group was quarantined, but 86 people were confirmed and 10 patients died until it was released.

Of course, we paid more attention to quarantine and conducted a full inspection every week.

But again, 9 people were confirmed.

No specific route of infection was found.

In addition to the Haetrak Nursing Hospital, 23 people were infected overnight at the Bluebird Senior Health Center in Yeongdo-gu, and 9 people were infected at the Buk-gu Family Love Senior Day Care Center.

Jeonbuk Sunchang Nursing Hospital On the 18th, additional infections have continued since the first confirmed person came out at the Jeonbuk Sunchang Nursing Hospital.

Eleven more people were infected yesterday, and additional confirmed yesterday.

Until yesterday, there were 76 confirmed cases.

In fact, group infections in elderly-related facilities such as nursing homes and day care centers are occurring across the country.

There are a lot of confirmed people every day.

There are many underlying diseases in the elderly, and analysis has shown that the number of deaths is increasing rapidly.

[앵커]

Are there any confirmations related to the church?

[기자]

Yes, it is.

Churches and church-related facilities are places where group infections occur sporadically as well as nursing homes.

Infections that started at the BJT Universal Center in Sangju, Gyeongbuk, a missionary facility, are occurring in a series of places nationwide.

On the 27th and 28th of last month, an event was held in which 500 people participated, and related confirmed cases are appearing in various places.

There were also confirmed people in Busan, Gwangju, and Daejeon through people who went to the event.

In particular, in Daejeon, more than 70 confirmed cases were found in 7 churches through additional infection.

There are also confirmed cases in the mission facility in Ulsan, but the cumulative number of confirmed cases exceeded 50.

The quarantine authorities are conducting an epidemiological investigation to see if there is any relevance, as it is a member of the same missionary corporation as the Sangju BJT Universal Center.

[앵커]

In addition to religious facilities, are there places where there are many confirmed cases?

[기자]

Yes, it is.

There were more than 100 confirmed cases of food outlets in Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do.

It is a food mart in rural areas for foreigners.

Most of the foreigners using the mart are rural workers in the area.

The problem is that foreign workers working in rural areas are often in contact with co-workers living in other areas at accommodations or restaurants specializing in foreigners, and the infection is more likely to spread sporadically.

In addition, two firefighters in Chungbuk were confirmed.

They are employees of Okcheon Fire Station in Chungbuk and Dongbu Fire Station in Cheongju, respectively.

These two are confirmed cases related to the church in the Daejeon area mentioned earlier.

In Chungcheongbuk-do, confirmed firefighters were lifted from their positions, claiming that they had violated an administrative order banning meetings.
