Disease Control Cheong, On-site Promotion for Infectious Disease Prevention in Local Communities

The Honam Regional Disease Control Center of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency announced on the 13th that it conducted a campaign to promote infectious disease prevention guidelines within the local community in preparation for the post-COVID-19 recovery of daily life.

This infectious disease prevention campaign was carried out jointly with the Mokpo, Yeosu, and Jeju National Quarantine Stations at Muan International Airport and Mokpo Station Plaza to promote adherence to infectious disease prevention guidelines, which may become lax during the phased recovery from COVID-19.

The Honam Regional Disease Control Center is an agency under the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency established for disease response and management within the region. Since its opening in 2020, it has played a central role in community disease and health management through close cooperation with local governments, surveillance and response to legally designated infectious diseases including COVID-19, evidence-based diagnostic analysis, and specialized chronic disease management.

Yoon Jeong-hwan, head of the Honam Regional Disease Control Center, stated, "The Honam Regional Disease Control Center will strive to come closer to local residents and work to create a safe and healthy society."
