Yeonggwang-gun Applies 'Social Distancing Restructuring Phase 1' Until the 14th

[Yeonggwang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters reporter Lee Jeonseong]=Jeonnam Yeonggwang-gun (Governor Kim Junsung) announced on the 1st that it will apply the social restructuring plan "Strengthened Level 1" until the 14th in accordance with the administrative order of Jeonnam Province.

Jeonnam Province has been pilot-applying Level 1 of the social distancing restructuring plan since last month, except for some areas, and with the nationwide implementation of the restructuring plan, quarantine rules have been significantly relaxed. To prepare for the expected decrease in quarantine vigilance, it was decided to gradually ease restrictions further after a two-week implementation period.

The private gatherings, previously allowed up to 8 people, will be expanded to include entertainment facilities (entertainment, danran, emotional pubs, hunting pocha, colatec), dance halls, and holdem pubs. Workers in entertainment facilities including clubs and nightclubs are recommended to undergo diagnostic testing once a week.

Those who have completed vaccination will have no restrictions on the number of people in private gatherings at indoor and outdoor multi-use facilities, and will be able to freely use senior centers and welfare centers, as well as consume food.

For events, gatherings of 200 or more people must be reported in advance to local governments, and assemblies of 200 or more people are prohibited.

Religious facilities are allowed up to 50% of their capacity, and meetings, meals, and lodging are prohibited; however, meals inside religious facilities are permitted only for vaccinated individuals, including those who have passed 14 days after the first dose.

The county will conduct special quarantine inspections of vulnerable facilities during the implementation period to raise on-site awareness, as sporadic confirmed cases continue in the province and quarantine risk factors such as the Delta variant increase.

Governor Kim Junsung said, "With the application of the social distancing restructuring plan and the summer vacation season approaching, I hope residents will actively participate in complying with personal quarantine rules based on autonomy and responsibility, such as refraining from gatherings and travel and wearing masks, so that quarantine vigilance does not become lax."
