[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Muan-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 4th that it is proactively responding to prevent 'COVID-19' infection among vulnerable groups.


Since January, the county has established customized welfare teams at 9 eup and myeon offices to promote the stability of vulnerable groups' lives and realize visiting welfare services to address various welfare needs.


Currently, with the COVID-19 crisis alert level raised to 'serious' and infection cases increasing nationwide, face-to-face contact with residents is inevitable to implement welfare administration. Therefore, the county is focusing all efforts on preventing COVID-19 infection and providing welfare services through one-on-one mask consultations with visitors.


Additionally, Muan-gun has invested a budget of 66 million won, including contingency funds, to supply 30,000 masks and 3,000 hand sanitizers to 530 welfare facilities for vulnerable groups such as senior centers, daycare centers, and nursing facilities, doing its best to prevent the spread of COVID-19.


A resident of Muan-eup, Mr. A, expressed deep gratitude, saying, "I was moved by the warm welfare administrative services where the county takes a step closer for low-income groups and others."



An official from Muan-gun stated, "As this is a more important time than ever to prevent COVID-19 infection, we will carry out flawless welfare administration for the happiness of our residents."
