Gimhae City Strengthens Disinfection Activities Throughout the City to Curb the Spread of COVID-19

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Gimhae City in Gyeongnam announced on the 19th that it will conduct eco-friendly disinfection throughout the city due to the resurgence of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) and the elevation of social distancing to level 3.

As infections have recently occurred continuously due to entertainment bars and contact with confirmed cases, the city is mobilizing a total of 3 health center vehicle disinfection teams and 19 town, township, and neighborhood disinfection teams to strengthen disinfection activities in major urban areas as a measure to alleviate citizens' anxiety about mass infections.

So far, the city has been conducting disinfection activities that combine insecticide spraying and sterilization disinfection of confirmed patients' movement paths in major multi-use facilities to promptly respond to COVID-19 and block vector-borne infectious diseases.

In addition, twice a week, themed disinfection activities are carried out in public restrooms, parks, foreigner-dense areas, and valleys frequently visited by citizens in summer for COVID-19 sterilization disinfection, and the life quarantine promotion team is utilized to promote and guide quarantine rules such as wearing masks.

Lee Jong-hak, head of the health center, urged, "For effective COVID-19 response, it is necessary to frequently disinfect objects that are often touched and strictly adhere to personal quarantine rules such as disinfecting and ventilating your home and workplace, and wearing masks."
