The social distancing stage will be lowered to the second stage in the metropolitan area and 1.5 stages in the non-metropolitan area for two weeks from the 15th to the 28th. The business hours limit for multi-use facilities in the metropolitan area has been increased to 10 pm, and the business hours limit for non-metropolitan areas has been lifted.
The ban on private gatherings with more than 5 people was maintained, but an exception was applied to immediate family members. Accordingly, a family member of 5 or more people can have a family gathering at a restaurant, etc., if they are of direct lineage (direct blood relatives under civil law).
The quarantine authorities plan to review the adjustment plan for quarantine measures after observing the trend of confirmed cases over the next two weeks. Of course, it is a position that, if stability continues in the metropolitan area, the ban on private gatherings with more than 5 people can be reviewed.
◇If you are a direct family member, you can meet with 5 or more people Restaurants and cafes in the metropolitan area are eaten in the store until 10 p.m.
According to the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters on the 15th, the social distancing stage was lowered to stage 2 in the metropolitan area and 1.5 stages in the non-capital area for two weeks from this day. From December 8, last year, the steps were lowered in 69 days after the 2.5th step in the metropolitan area and the second step in the non-metropolitan area were implemented.
Contents that are commonly applied across the country are except for immediate family members who are prohibited from meeting privately with more than 5 people. Direct family means the existence of a direct line. Parents, grandparents, maternal grandparents, sons and daughters-in-law, daughters and son-in-laws, grandchildren and granddaughters fall under this category. If you are a direct family member, even if you have 5 or more people, you can eat at a restaurant or hold family events such as ceremonies. However, if there are no parents, no immediate family will be formed, so if you are a brother or a sister family, meetings of 5 or more people are prohibited.
In the metropolitan area, the operating hours of multi-use facilities (approximately 480,000 locations) such as general management facilities such as movie theaters, PC rooms, game rooms, academies, reading rooms, amusement parks, beauty salons, and large marts are lifted. In the case of restaurants and cafes, eating in the store is possible until 10 pm, which is extended by 1 hour from 9 pm, and afterwards, only packaging and delivery are possible.
Key management facilities such as door-to-door sales promotion hall, singing practice hall, indoor standing performance hall, indoor sports facility, academy classroom, and party room can be operated until 10 pm.
In the case of movie theaters and performance halls, it is possible to operate by floating one seat or one seat other than a companion. Sports watching can be admitted by 10% of the total number of spectators in the 2.5 stage unattended game.
Public meetings and events were limited to 50 or more in step 2.5, and the number of people was also relaxed to 100 or more. Events such as weddings and funerals increased from less than 50 people to less than 100 people, and religious activities at religious facilities also increased to 20% in seats.
However, in the case of the bathhouse business, group infections continue to occur, so the ban on the operation of sauna and steam facilities in the metropolitan area is maintained.
◇Restrictions on operating hours of multi-use facilities in non-metropolitan areas lifted Door-to-door sales and entertainment facilities are limited until 10:00
In the case of non-metropolitan areas, as the distance-distance stage has been adjusted to 1.5 stages, in addition to general management facilities, multi-use facilities such as restaurants and cafes, singing practice areas, indoor standing performance halls, indoor sports facilities, and party rooms (approximately 520,000 locations) The operating time limit is lifted. However, in the case of door-to-door sales promotion halls, operations are restricted until 10 pm as there have been many cases of group infection.
In the case of movie theaters and performance halls, in step 1.5, it is possible to open one seat other than the companion. In the case of sports watching, only 30% of the garden is allowed to enter and view.
Meetings and events can be held with up to 500 people when core quarantine rules, such as wearing masks, are obligatory, and if a quarantine management plan is established and reported and discussed by the local government, meetings and events of 500 or more are possible. Marriage and funeral ceremonies in the non-metropolitan area can now be gathered by less than 500 people. Religious facilities can hold religious events for up to 30% of the seats.
In addition, five types of entertainment facilities such as entertainment pubs, danran pubs, emotion pubs, collages, hunting pots, and Hold’em pubs nationwide can be operated by following the core quarantine rules and applying business hours restrictions until 10 pm.
◇ The key to spreading tax over the next two weeks… Quarantine Authority “Reduce the ban on private gatherings for more than 5 people”
The quarantine authorities are evaluating that the situation of the occurrence of confirmed cases over the next two weeks is key.
The occurrence of confirmed cases due to the Lunar New Year holidays may appear in earnest, and it takes two weeks to evaluate the impact of this downward distancing.
In the metropolitan area, the infectious material production index was 1.06 for the past week (February 7-13), which is still a concern. The Infection Reproduction Index quantifies how many additional infections each confirmed person makes, and if it is more than 1, the spread of infection is increasing.
The quarantine authorities explained that the “prohibition of private gatherings with more than 5 people”, which was set as an exception for immediate family members, may be reviewed due to the spread of the two-week period.
At a briefing on the 14th, Sohn Young-rae, head of the Social Strategy Division at the Central Accident Control Headquarters, said, “The next two weeks are the week in which the effects of the Lunar New Year holiday can appear. Still, he said, “If the third epidemic is gradually decreasing nationwide, the current quarantine measures should be gradually eased. Prohibition of private gatherings with more than 5 people is a subject of review.”
“There is a high possibility that the direction of quarantine management itself will be operated differently depending on whether it will show a stable decline over the next two weeks or the risk of re-proliferation will become a reality.” Please do it,” he added.
