[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Samho-eup, Yeongam-gun, Jeollanam-do (Eupjang Oh Ja-young) announced on the 23rd that about 30 people, including members of the Volunteer Disaster Prevention Corps (Danjang Chu Bok-yong) and soldiers from the Army 8539 Unit 5th Battalion (Daedaejang Lee Sang-seok), participated in disinfecting about 200 stores in the area to prevent the influx and spread of COVID-19 in the local community.

Since the 2nd, Samho-eup has been conducting intensive disinfection every Monday at multi-use facilities such as welfare centers, village senior citizen centers, intercity bus terminals, and children's playgrounds. Due to ongoing concerns about the spread of infectious diseases in the community, the disinfection efforts have been expanded to include multi-use stores, carrying out joint disinfection and sterilization.

In particular, intensive disinfection was carried out at multi-use facilities frequently used by students and with high risk of group infections, such as PC rooms, karaoke rooms, and arcades, due to the postponement of kindergarten, elementary, middle, and high school openings.

Oh Ja-young, the head of Samho-eup, said, “I deeply thank the members of the Volunteer Disaster Prevention Corps who have been steadily participating in disinfection on the front lines and the soldiers of the military unit who actively supported this disinfection.” He added, “We will continue to cooperate with related organizations and do our best for the health and safety of the residents until COVID-19 is eradicated.”
