[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Saeng-hye] On the 15th, health authorities explained how to receive free drive-thru testing for the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

The health authorities first urged, "Drivers must drive alone to visit the drive-thru screening clinic." This means that if there is a passenger during the COVID-19 test, the test cannot be conducted due to infection concerns.

The free testing eligibility includes ▲ residents of Daegu or visitors to Daegu with a fever of 37.5 degrees Celsius or higher or respiratory symptoms (cough, difficulty breathing, etc.) ▲ those who received a COVID-19 test referral from a private clinic ▲ those under self-quarantine who have fever or respiratory symptoms ▲ those who had contact with confirmed cases and have fever or respiratory symptoms ▲ and cases where testing is approved by the screening clinic physician’s judgment.
