Deputy Deputy Deputy Deputy General Manager Kwon said this day through a speech at the main script meeting, saying, “In the new spring, the number of confirmed patients has exceeded 500 as the amount of movement and contact has increased, and the density of multi-use facilities such as restaurants and entertainment establishments and call centers Group infection is increasing in vulnerable facilities such as high workplaces, schools and day care centers,” he said.
Deputy General Manager Kwon said, “We are at the crossroads of whether we are going to group immunization through vaccination or whether the 4th epidemic becomes a reality.” Even a smooth vaccination will cause a setback,” he said.
In particular, Deputy General Kwon ordered to strengthen inspections related to entertainment facilities where group infections occurred in Seoul, Busan, and Daejeon. Deputy Vice President Kwon said, “If a group infection occurs in an entertainment facility, it becomes difficult to investigate and manage contact quickly due to the behavior of hiding the fact of the visit, and there is a very high risk of spreading it to the local community.” “I ask you to take strict measures, such as group restrictions and business bans, for businesses that do not observe the quarantine regulations, and conduct a Japanese check on the quarantine regulations.”
“Since the last 1st, vaccinations for seniors over 75 years of age have been progressing smoothly.” “We are concentrating our capabilities by forming a TF (Task Force) to ensure that the secured vaccine is introduced without any disruption to the schedule. At the same time, we will expand vaccination centers and consignment medical institutions as quickly as possible, and operate on weekends and holidays. “We plan to increase the number of vaccination centers,” he said.
In addition, Deputy Deputy General Kwon asked local governments and related ministries to manage thorough quarantine management of religious facilities a day ahead of Easter (4th), crowded department stores, tourist spots in spring, and pre-voting booths on the 4th and 7th rehabilitation lines.
On this day, the major main meeting will discuss regional quarantine measures and vaccination status.
