Two Confirmed Cases Related to Hwasun Golf Course 'Gold Lake CC'... Jeonnam Cases 884 and 885

[Hwasun=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Ji-woon] In Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do, two close contacts of a confirmed case related to Naju Gold Lake CC tested positive while in self-quarantine overnight.

According to the county on the 8th, the two confirmed cases classified as Jeonnam 884 and 885 are cohabiting family members of Jeonnam 874, who tested positive on the 5th.

They were classified as close contacts and underwent diagnostic testing and self-quarantine after Jeonnam 872 and Jeonnam 874, colleagues at Gold Lake CC in Naju, were confirmed positive one after another.

All tested negative in the initial test.

On the previous day, Jeonnam 884 showed symptoms such as headache and underwent diagnostic testing, which confirmed positive on the day, and one of the two cohabiting family members who were tested as a preemptive measure on the same day (Jeonnam 885) also tested positive additionally.

The county immediately conducted disinfection of their residence upon notification and transferred the two confirmed cases to Gangjin Medical Center. Since they were confirmed positive during self-quarantine, there is no movement path of the confirmed cases.

As cases of positive tests during self-quarantine continue, the county plans to strengthen monitoring of symptom onset and quarantine breaches among those in self-quarantine and to reorganize the detailed self-quarantine living guidelines and manuals.

A county official said, “Although the first diagnostic test is negative, it is common to be confirmed positive in the second or third test. Since symptoms may appear after the incubation period, those subject to self-quarantine must strictly follow the self-quarantine living guidelines.”
