Xinhua news agency, December 2, according to Yonhap news agency, in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19's variant of the Olympic Games, 1, the central Korean epidemic prevention headquarters decided that from 3 to 16, all persons entering the Republic of Korea, regardless of nationality and whether the new crown vaccine has been completed, must receive a 10 day quarantine.
According to the report, specific measures include the repatriation of Koreans and foreigners who live in Korea for 10 days. They received 3 COVID-19 nucleic acid tests before entering the country, first days before entry and the end of quarantine. Foreigners who stay for a short time need to be isolated for 10 days in the temporary living facilities provided by the Korean government.
In addition, the South Korean government decided to list Nigeria as a key epidemic prevention country and a high-risk country from 0:00 local time on the 3rd, and exclude it from the list of countries exempted from isolation.
The report pointed out that the Korean government took into account that people from 9 countries living in Africa, South Africa and Botswana could only take direct flights from Ethiopia to Korea, so the government decided to suspend direct flights from 3 to 3 flights per week from 4 to 17. However, irregular flights between the two countries will be arranged to help local Korean citizens return home safely.
On the 1 day, the South Korean interdepartmental new crown and new mutation team held first meetings with the group. The meeting decided that all the entry personnel would be tested for COVID-19's variant.
The team also stipulates that close contacts of confirmed cases in Omicron will also receive home isolation, and the isolation period will be extended from 10 days to 14 days. The confirmed cases of Omicron will be treated in hospitals and living treatment facilities.
It was previously reported that on the evening of the 1st, the South Korean epidemic prevention department said that South Korea had found 5 new cases of confirmed infection with Omicron.
