○ In Seoul, 50 cases have confirmed at call center in Gurogu and investigation is underway. 46 except contact of family among confirmed cases have worked at 11th call center. 207 employers are under investigation.
○ KCDC National institute of Health(K-NIH) said that they successfully developed a probe to detect COVID-19 antibody in the blood on 10 March. Techniques to identify whether body’s immune system can produce antibodies against antigen are essential for evaluating the efficacy of vaccines or therapeutics.
○ K-NIH has established a test (Immunofluorescence Assay, IFA) to examine the human body’s immunological response on the blood obtained from COVID-19 patients. K-NIH plans to accelerate the development of related therapeutics based on the development of a probe to detect COVID-19 antibody.
○ KCDC urges to local government to cooperate with facilities as cases are confirmed around group facilities, multi-use facilities, and medical centers. Also KCDC recommends everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, and social distancing to avoid population crowding or cancel/suspend gathering activities.
