[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Lee Dong-jin, the mayor of Dobong-gu, visited temporary screening clinics and public health centers, newly installed at three locations in the district on the 19th, to listen to the difficulties faced by medical staff and hear opinions from residents who came for testing.

Since the 14th, Dobong-gu has been operating temporary screening clinics in easily accessible locations so that any resident can easily get tested for free, amid an increase in asymptomatic and mild infections and the resulting secondary transmission leading to a rise in confirmed cases.

A temporary screening clinic is operating at ‘Exit 1 of Changdong Station,’ and from December 18, additional temporary screening clinics have been installed and operated at ‘Dobong-gu Office Plaza’ and ‘Dobong Residents’ Hall Plaza.’

The operating hours are from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays, and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekends (weekend hours may be subject to change).

Mayor Lee Dong-jin of Dobong-gu said, “In this emergency situation where COVID-19 cases are rapidly increasing, proactive testing to block the spread of infection is a very important response,” and urged, “If you have even slight symptoms, please visit the Dobong-gu Public Health Center or temporary screening clinics to get tested.”
