In the case of Apartment B, 12 people live in 8 households out of about 50 households, with 4 confirmed cases, but since they all live as family units, it was not considered a collective residence facility.

In addition, One-room E has 5 confirmed cases in 4 out of 7 households, resulting in a total of 222 confirmed cases in this area. Among them, 204 are Shincheonji Church members.

The city plans to designate this area as a special management zone in close cooperation with Nam-gu Office and the police to thoroughly manage and prevent further spread of infection.

In particular, the policy is to prohibit self-quarantine for confirmed patients occurring in this area.

The city stated, "As of yesterday, after hospital admission and placement in living treatment centers, 44 people currently waiting for admission at home will be strongly enforced by public officials and police to enter living treatment centers within today."
