YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSouth Korea is continuing its efforts to disinfect public facilities including Seoul’s subways to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
The coronavirus outbreak in South Korea is showing signs of slowing as the rate of new daily infections falls and health authorities almost finished testing members of a religious sect at the center of the epidemic, the country’s health minister said.
The country was at an early stage of stabilizing the outbreak in the city of Daegu and North Gyeongsang province, where the majority of new cases have been reported.
South Korea has borne its virus outbreak relatively well despite the scale of the spread. The country has been testing people for the virus at the fastest pace in the world, which appears to have allowed early detection of cases and keep its mortality rate lower than average. Infections have also been largely contained to Daegu and surrounding areas, although the government has not imposed restrictions over people’s movements like in China and Italy.
