The number of new confirmed cases fell below 400, down 103 from the last 30 days (458). It has been five days since the last 26th (349) that the number has come down to 300. The decrease in the number of new confirmed cases seems to have a significant impact on the decrease in the number of tests on weekends.
However, the number of confirmed cases can grow again at any time due to the high risk of latent infection in the local community, such as the group infection from IM Mission still remains and the outbreak is newly confirmed at Hanyang University Hospital and Boramae Hospital in Seoul.
The’third pandemic’ peaked on the 25th of last month (1,240 people) and then showed a modest decline in the new year, and then turned to an increase again starting with the group infection related to the IM Mission.
From the 25th to the last week, the number of new confirmed cases per day was 437 → 349 → 559 → 497 → 469 → 458 → 355. During this period, 300 people came 2 times, 400 people came 4 times, and 500 people came first.
