Morning and afternoon vehicle odd-even system, memorial time within 10 minutes, no food allowed, etc.

[Damyang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] On the 15th, Damyang-gun, Jeollanam-do announced that it will implement a ‘Special COVID-19 Prevention Plan for County-Managed Columbarium Facilities’ to disperse visitors during the Chuseok holiday.

As a large concentration of visitors is expected during the Chuseok holiday period, the county has prepared measures to minimize contact among visitors, including usage before and after the holiday, alternating vehicle access by odd and even numbers (morning and afternoon), limiting memorial time to within 10 minutes, prohibiting food entry, and maintaining a 2-meter distance.

In particular, quarantine posts will be installed on site to operate safe call systems, separate entrances and exits, restrict entry of symptomatic individuals and those not wearing masks, thereby operating a county cemetery safe from COVID-19.

Additionally, a comprehensive task force has been organized to manage the columbarium facilities during the Chuseok holiday, conducting pre-inspections of private columbarium facility prevention measures and appointing quarantine managers to maintain a thorough COVID-19 prevention system.

A county official stated, “To prevent the spread of COVID-19 and ensure everyone has a happy holiday, we ask for the active cooperation of visitors in following the prevention guidelines when visiting the county cemetery.”
