In Daegu, 13 new cases of coronavirus infection (Corona 19) occurred.
According to the city of Daegu on the 13th, 13 people were confirmed the day before, and the cumulative confirmed number was 8094. All are local infections.
Of the additional confirmed cases, 10 were identified as contacts of the existing confirmed cases.
Two of these are related to D company Dalseong-gun. In this company, one employee was confirmed on the 11th, and 8 of them were positive in a test of 119 employees, family members, and acquaintances.
In addition, two people, including those related to Jin Hospital in Dong-gu, tested positive in the pre-isolation test, and one was a contact with a confirmed person whose infection route was unknown.
The other two were contacted by a confirmed patient in Cheongju, Chungbuk, 1 contacted with Gumi Songjeong Church, 1 contacted with Gyeongsan confirmed, and 1 confirmed during self-isolation.
Three of the new confirmed cases have an unclear infection route.
On the other hand, the quarantine authorities immediately discharged 7 of the confirmed cases that were notified as positive at the Daegu Nam-gu Health Center screening clinic on the 9th as’false positive’ (determined negative as positive).
The quarantine authorities confirmed this in the process of retesting because it was strange that the positive rate was high in certain clinics at the same time.
An official from Daegu City said, “The spray-type drug freezes in cold waves while disinfecting the collected sample, and the disinfection effect is lowered in the process of replacing it with a gel type.” I will pay special attention to whether there is contamination in the city.”
The number of confirmed cases in Daegu has maintained double digits for more than a month since the outbreak of group infection at Dalseong Youngshin Church on the 11th of last month.
