Gangjin Police, Full Effort Response to COVID-19 Prevention

Proactive COVID-19 Prevention Including Implementation of Social Distancing

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] The Gangjin Police Station in Jeonnam announced on the 25th that it is responding swiftly to prevent the recent increase in COVID-19 confirmed cases in Jeonnam Province.

Amid rising anxiety in the local community due to the spread of COVID-19, the Gangjin Police Station collaborated with Gangjin County Office, Gangjin-eup volunteer groups, and others to purchase and produce masks, distributing them to socially vulnerable groups such as the elderly, multicultural families, and foreign workers.

Furthermore, given the high possibility of COVID-19 spread in police facilities frequently visited by civil petitioners, such as police stations and district units, proactive measures are being taken to prevent infection.

Regular disinfection has been conducted in multi-use facilities such as the police station building and patrol cars to help prevent COVID-19. In particular, to address concerns about infection through restroom door handles used by many people, restroom partitions have been installed to avoid unnecessary contact, drawing attention as an active preventive measure against COVID-19.

Chief Kim Sunwoo stated, “As COVID-19 confirmed cases are increasing in Jeonnam Province, we will respond proactively and strive to alleviate anxiety in the local community. The Gangjin Police will take the lead in implementing and promoting the government’s social distancing campaign to make Gangjin free of COVID-19.”
