Covid-19 Cases Don't Decrease, South Korea Heightened Restrictions

      South Korea is reportedly considering first tighten some social distancing rules in Seoul and its surroundings. This step was taken after South Korea reported 300 new cases in five Covid-19 consecutive days.

    South Korean Prime Minister Chung Sye-Kyun said that officials will discuss whether to enforce stricter distance regulations for the Seoul region as well as the country's southwest region, to curb the spread of Covid-19.

    Under South Korea's coping with Covid-19 guidelines, the level of restriction is determined by certain benchmarks, such as a significant increase in a short period of time, or when the daily national tally exceeds 300 for more than a week.
