COVID-19 Disinfection and Sanitization at Songpa-gu East Office and Community Center

Proactive Measures to Prepare for the COVID-19 Resurgence

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Seogang Seok) is taking the lead in preventing the resurgence of COVID-19 by implementing quarantine measures at multi-use facilities such as community service centers.

Songpa-gu has a population of 670,000 and consists of 27 administrative neighborhoods, making it the district with the highest administrative demand among Seoul's 25 autonomous districts.

Accordingly, many residents have increased anxiety due to the COVID-19 resurgence, necessitating proactive quarantine measures focused on multi-use facilities.

From July 25 to 29, the district conducted disinfection and sterilization at 27 community service center buildings and 28 autonomous community centers within the area. A professional company sprayed ultrafine particle disinfectants and carried out eco-friendly cleaning simultaneously. In particular, to minimize inconvenience to residents and maintain continuous administrative services, disinfection was performed excluding times when residents and community center program participants were absent.

Since mid-this month, Songpa-gu has been intensively implementing quarantine measures targeting 670 infection-vulnerable facilities, including elderly medical facilities and welfare facilities for the disabled.

Choi Jin-woo, head of the Autonomous Administration Team, stated, “As residents' anxiety rises due to the COVID-19 resurgence, we will contribute to making Songpa safe by conducting frequent disinfection and sterilization.”
