Coupang Ilsan 1 Camp Closed Due to COVID-19 Confirmed Case Visit... "Gwanghwamun Rally Origin" View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] A confirmed COVID-19 case has occurred at the Coupang camp due to a cohabiting family member who attended the Gwanghwamun rally. On the 22nd, Coupang announced that a "flexer" (an ordinary person doing delivery part-time using their own vehicle) at the Ilsan 1 camp in Gyeonggi-do reported testing positive for the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) after being tested, leading to the closure of the camp and the implementation of necessary measures.


The confirmed cases are a flexer couple who visited the Ilsan 1 camp; following a cohabiting family member's positive diagnosis on the 21st, they were also confirmed positive on the 22nd. According to health authorities, they are presumed to be contacts of a confirmed case who attended the August 15 Gwanghwamun rally.



Coupang immediately closed the Ilsan 1 camp and conducted additional disinfection, while notifying visitors and others of the situation via text messages and verbal communication. Coupang plans to fully cooperate with health authorities and do its best to ensure the safety of workers and visitors and to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
