Instructions on Disinfection of Multi-use Public Facilities, Dissemination of Infectious Disease Prevention Guidelines, and Securing Disinfection Supplies

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] On the morning of the 4th, Roh Hyun-song, Mayor of Gangseo-gu, convened all department heads in the large conference room of the district office to hold an emergency meeting to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, sharing the current status of each department's response efforts and reviewing their roles.

On this day, Mayor Roh Hyun-song ordered a full-scale effort to block the entry of the novel coronavirus into the local community and prevent its spread.

In particular, Mayor Roh emphasized, "Proactive and active responses are more important than anything else to alleviate residents' anxiety following the upgrade of the infection alert to the caution stage."

He then urged thorough quarantine measures for public facilities used by many people, the dissemination of infection prevention guidelines throughout the community, especially to vulnerable health groups, and to ensure the securing of quarantine supplies such as masks and hand sanitizers in preparation for a prolonged situation.

While the second confirmed case residing in Gangseo-gu (55-year-old male) is showing mostly improved symptoms and is about to be discharged, the district has designated dedicated officials to manage 28 individuals who entered from Wuhan, China, without showing symptoms, through one-on-one phone consultations and frequent monitoring to prevent the spread of infection in the community in advance.
