Seochunsu, Hamyang County Governor, Orders Strengthened Guidance and Inspection of Multi-use Facilities Amid COVID-19 Pandemic
Request to Refrain from Visiting the Capital Area, Strict Management of Entry Records, and Compliance with Individual Basic Quarantine Rules
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Seo Chunsu, the mayor of Hamyang County, recognizing the seriousness of the quarantine situation as the daily confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in the Seoul metropolitan area remain in the 1,300 range, has ordered all department heads to guide and inspect multi-use facilities in the jurisdiction in accordance with the implementation of Level 4 measures.
The county is implementing the new Social Distancing Level 1, lifting restrictions on private gatherings, conducting periodic proactive testing of entertainment facility workers once every two weeks, and strengthening some quarantine rules such as banning meals and lodging organized by religious facilities, which are being enforced for two weeks until the 14th.
Through this, the use of senior citizen centers and village halls, which had been suspended due to restrictions on private gatherings, has been made possible, and some measures for partial daily life recovery have been taken by utilizing them as summer heat relief shelters.
In this situation, with the recent spread of COVID-19 and the summer vacation season, there is great concern about a large-scale spread, so strict adherence to quarantine rules has been urged to prevent any impact on the 2021 Hamyang Wild Ginseng Anti-Aging Expo.
Accordingly, Hamyang County has decided to conduct guidance and inspection activities for hygiene businesses at least once a week in cooperation with the police station.
In May, a safe call entry management system was installed in about 1,500 multi-use facilities to encourage active participation from residents.

We earnestly urge compliance with quarantine rules to prevent the fourth major wave in the metropolitan area from spreading to our county.”
