On the 8th, Seoul citizens are waiting in line to get tested in front of the screening clinic at Seoul Medical Center in Jungnang-gu, Seoul, as the city launched free proactive COVID-19 testing for the general public to prevent community outbreaks caused by asymptomatic carriers of the novel coronavirus. This measure by the Seoul Metropolitan Government aims to identify 'silent spreaders' through active proactive testing amid increasing sporadic infections with unclear transmission routes, including asymptomatic cases. Citizens can apply through the Seoul city website and visit designated municipal hospitals to receive free testing./Reporter Kim Hyun-min kimhyun81@
