Daegu Urban Railroad, Public Transportation Mask Wearing Campaign ... Hand Sanitizer Distribution

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Dong-wook] Daegu Metropolitan Transit Corporation announced on the 29th afternoon that it conducted a mask-wearing campaign to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) at transfer stations of subway lines 1, 2, and 3.

The campaign was inspired by the Disease Control Headquarters call center number 1339 and took place from 1:39 PM at transfer passageways of three stations (Banwoldang, Cheongra Hill, and Myeongdeok stations). Additionally, to practice social distancing in daily life, 3,000 portable hand sanitizers were distributed free of charge to citizens using a walking thru method.

The corporation also provides conscience mask sales stands, mask vending machines, and convenience stores within the stations for passengers who do not have masks to purchase them.

Hong Seung-hwal, President of Daegu Metropolitan Transit Corporation, requested, "Recognizing that making mask-wearing a daily habit is the strongest vaccine, we hope citizens will practice wearing masks when using the subway with a considerate heart to protect their own and others' health."
