[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] On the 24th, the quarantine authorities urged people to refrain from visiting multi-use facilities in relation to 'Halloween Day' on the 31st.

On the 24th, Kwon Jun-wook, Deputy Director of the Central Disease Control Headquarters (CDCH), said at a regular briefing regarding Halloween Day gatherings, "COVID-19 can occur in any '3M' (crowded, close-contact, enclosed) environment."

Deputy Director Kwon said, "When participating in events, people should refrain from actions that may generate droplets such as physical contact or singing, and also avoid sharing food. It is important to stay for as short a time as possible, and if symptoms appear after the gathering, get tested immediately." He added, "Strictly follow personal quarantine rules such as proper mask-wearing, hand washing, and maintaining a 2-meter distance. Facilities that hold or host related events should designate a quarantine manager to measure attendees' temperatures and comply with basic rules."
