[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yukbong] Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (District Mayor Moon In) announced on the 3rd that it will promote the health management program 'COVID-19 Healing Project' for COVID-19 recovered patients and self-quarantined individuals starting this month.


The Healing Project is conducted for COVID-19 recovered patients, self-quarantined individuals, and those released from self-quarantine, providing support for pulmonary function test costs, horticulture, art, exercise programs, and nutritional lunchboxes.


First, among COVID-19 recovered patients, residents experiencing aftereffects or concerned about their health will receive up to 100,000 KRW per person to cover the cost of pulmonary function tests such as lung CT scans at hospitals contracted with the district office.


Additionally, to promote mental and physical stability for self-quarantined individuals, companion plant kits will be provided, and customized therapeutic programs such as horticulture, art, and exercise will be operated to aid health recovery for those released from self-quarantine.


In particular, nutritional lunchboxes will be delivered to vulnerable groups such as elderly and disabled individuals among the self-quarantined who have difficulty securing meals, to help maintain a healthy diet.


For more details on pulmonary function test costs, treatment program applications, and other information, please contact the local administrative welfare center of your address or the Buk-gu Office Specialized Village Development Division.



District Mayor Moon In of Buk-gu said, "I hope this project will serve as a catalyst for residents going through difficult times due to COVID-19 to manage their health and return to daily life."
