The number of Covid infections in South Korea is reported to be on the rise over the past week. The day before yesterday, there were 1784 cases of Covid infection, the highest number of Covid infections in a week, according to foreign news reports.
South Korea is at risk of spreading the new Delta strain as the number of Covid infections increases, with most of those infected the day before being suspected to be infected with the strain.
With the new spread of the Covid epidemic, the government has taken steps to revise South Korea’s travel regulations and partially lock down the capital, Seoul, and surrounding areas.
