[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] The Gyeongsangnam-do Fire Headquarters announced on the 16th that it will implement 119 ambulance transport measures for self-quarantined test-takers in preparation for the 2022 College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT).

On the day of the CSAT, the Fire Headquarters will provide transport support for COVID-19 confirmed and self-quarantined test-takers among the 30,127 test-takers in the province.

The support targets situations where all family members are self-quarantined and private vehicle use is impossible, and where support from city/county official vehicles or public health center ambulances is difficult. Transport support will also be provided in case of emergency patients during the exam to ensure safe CSAT operation.

Additionally, during the third period English listening test, fire vehicle sirens will be minimized to reduce noise and inconvenience to test-takers, demonstrating meticulous efforts for the CSAT.

Kim Jo-il, head of the Gyeongnam Fire Headquarters, stated, "We will do our best to alleviate the anxiety and inconvenience of test-takers caused by COVID-19," and added, "We will also conduct surveillance activities at multi-use facilities expected to be crowded after the CSAT to foster a prevention-centered safety culture."
