Confirmed Case Occurs at a Hold'em Pub in Gwangju, Raising Concerns of Spread Within the Same Industry
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] As COVID-19 cases have emerged centered around a Hold'em pub in the Gwangju area, concerns about secondary infections spreading to the same industry are growing.
The Gwangju Metropolitan City quarantine authorities sent a safety alert message on the 8th, stating, "Those who visited Apple Hold'em Pub in Sinyong-dong, Buk-gu (265 Cheomdan Yeonsin-ro, 2nd floor, Buk-gu, Gwangju) are requested to get tested."
The relevant time frame is from 6 PM on the 2nd to 9 AM on the 3rd.
This follows the epidemiological investigation of Gwangju case number 2225, confirmed positive on the 5th (an employee of a Hold'em pub in Seo-gu), which confirmed the visit during that time.
