You Need To Listen To This Leading COVID-19 Expert From South Korea - How South Korea Succeeded ?

COUNTRIES HAVE BEEN PROHIBITED TO STAY ON THE STREET AFTER KORONA VIRUS SPREAD. These include cities where millions of people live.
While important countries of the world expanded these bans, life in South Korea started to return to normal.
South Korea was the most influential country after China in the first days of Corona Virus spread.
WHEN THE CURVES OF THE CURVE AGAINST THIS DISEASE, WHICH ARE WAITING, IT HAS CHANGED, THE CURVE HAS BEEN BROKEN AND UNDER CONTROL.
THE CURVES OF OTHER COUNTRIES CONTINUED TO RISE
The first Covid-19 case was confirmed on the 20th of January. The first patient was a 50-year-old woman from China. He came to South Korea for the trip. We diagnosed the first Covid-19 case. Our Korean Center for Disease Control, also known as KCDC, started identifying the people that this tourist was in contact with and putting them in a 2-week quarantine at home. The Korean CDC has done a great job in diagnosing, isolating patients, following up contacts, and quarantining for 14 days in their homes. On February 18, we identified the 31st Covid-19 case. A woman belonging to the Shincheonji Christian Church sect. Since then, many cases of Covid-19 have been identified in the Daegu-Gyeongbuk District. Daegu-Gyeongbuk District is a province about 300 km south of Seoul. Since the 31st Covid-19 case, many Covid-19 cases have been diagnosed in the Daegu-Gyeongbuk District. Approximately 7 thousand cases have been confirmed. Thus, the first Covid-19 outbreak wave in South Korea occurred during the period from late February to mid-March. We perform real-time PCR testing with a large number of diagnostic kits.
Have you ever had this test in South Korea or did you produce it after coronavirus?
Yes We took our lesson from the pandemic in 2009 and the 2015 MERS corona epidemic that emerged in South Korea. During that time, we have already learned the importance of the diagnostic kit using PCR testing to diagnose virus infections such as influenza pandemic and MERS coronavirus, so we already knew it. The diagnostic kit is crucial to start controlling an outbreak such as MERS coronovirus or Covid-19 virus or SARS.
As a result, all the lessons we learned from the previous MERS Covid outbreak taught us to develop a real-time PCR kit at the earliest time during the Covid-19 outbreak. This helped the real-time artificial kit develop as soon as possible.
Now we are between the first and second waves. The second wave is not coming yet. However, we are concerned about the second biggest wave in the South Metropolitan area. Now the Korean government still promotes personal hygiene, such as hand washing, coughing, wearing a mask, and enforces social distance rules.
In 91 new cases in South Korea, the virus was reactivated. Some research shows that the coronavirus is hiding in humans. What does it mean?
The case death rate of Covid-19 virus is lower compared to other coronaviruses like SARS and MERS. Because this Covid-19 virus generally causes about 2-4% case deaths. However, the case death rate of the SARS coronavirus is 9.6%. And the MERS coronavirus caused about 35% case death. As a result, the covid-19 virus spread more efficiently among humans, but the mortality rate is much lower compared to SARS and MERS.
