[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Jinju City, Gyeongnam Province, announced on the 14th that it will expand and operate a nighttime response team for efficient guidance and crackdown on facilities reported for violating COVID-19 quarantine rules.

The city currently operates a nighttime response team in the department responsible for managing key facilities such as entertainment establishments, but to enable faster and stronger crackdowns, the response team will be expanded to three teams with nine members.

The expanded nighttime response team will participate in facility inspections conducted by the existing inspection promotion team during the day, and conduct joint inspections with the police at night to strengthen crackdowns on facilities violating COVID-19 rules.

The city plans to take strong administrative actions based on a zero-tolerance policy to ensure citizens' safety and prevent the spread of infectious diseases when facilities violating quarantine rules are detected.

With the expansion and operation of this response team, immediate crackdowns and measures can be taken on reports of quarantine rule violations occurring at night, which is expected to be effective in blocking the spread of COVID-19.

A city official urged, "To prevent the spread of COVID-19, voluntary compliance with quarantine rules by all citizens is essential, so we ask everyone to strictly follow the quarantine rules to help stop the spread."

Meanwhile, Jinju City has been operating a comprehensive inspection promotion team for quarantine rules covering 18 types of businesses and 11,552 facilities, organized into one team leader and six teams.
