[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Geochang-gun, Gyeongnam Province, has urged the public to practice the "Spring Outing Quarantine Guidelines" to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) as outdoor activities increase during the spring season.

Recently, with the warmer weather, the number of people engaging in outdoor activities has increased, and the festive atmosphere enjoying the spring mood may lead to a loosening of quarantine awareness.

In particular, with the blooming of cherry blossoms, a large number of people are expected to gather at major cherry blossom spots, raising concerns about the spread of COVID-19 infections.

The common guidelines include canceling or postponing outing plans if you have a fever or respiratory symptoms, refraining from visiting rest areas, wearing masks, maintaining basic distancing (2m, minimum 1m), and avoiding crowded times.

After returning home, be sure to monitor for fever and respiratory symptoms, and if symptoms appear, get tested at a screening clinic and refrain from going out or attending gatherings.

Additionally, for individual travel, it is advised to travel in small groups for short periods, use private vehicles, strictly follow quarantine guidelines, and avoid using multi-use facilities.

Group travel should be avoided as much as possible; however, if group travel occurs, it is recommended to designate a quarantine manager, establish a quarantine management plan, wear masks inside vehicles, avoid group meals, and have meals in small groups or individually.
