Domestically, claims have been made on the cause of the failure of K-Defense's mobile phone IT tracking and criminal punishment-dependent quarantine that relied on coercion prevention and quarantine.
“So far, quarantine authorities have misled the public as if all problems can be solved by unconditionally increasing the vaccination rate,” said Lee Deok-hee, Kyusu (preventive medicine) at Kyungpook National University. "Even now, epidemiological investigations that track movement and PCR tests for asymptomatic and mild patients should be stopped," he said on the 16th.
Professor Lee said, “It shows that there is a fatal error in the assumption that the premise of K-Quarantine, that is, ‘an infectious disease that should never be caught even if it is asymptomatic’. He said, “I have been experiencing quarantine full of contradictions for about two years,” he said. 'Brunch' said on this day.
Professor Lee continued, “The difference between Japan and Korea, which has a similar vaccination rate to Korea, is that from the beginning, the state did not prevent natural infections passing through asymptomatic or mild cases in the name of quarantine. The sharp decline in the number of cases in Japan started when the vaccination rate was less than 50%, and this is possible because there are people who have experience of natural infection who provide strong and broad immunity. It is not possible to reduce the number of confirmed cases simply by increasing the vaccination rate,” he said. Cross-immunity means that if you have been exposed to a similar coronavirus in the past, you are also resistant to COVID-19.
K-quarantine is a quarantine prevention based on early detection, tracking, and situation, and the quarantine administration, which has the right to a two-year criminal penalty under the Infectious Diseases Act, puts the initial containment by controlling mobile phone compulsory location tracking and business occupancy tracking big data, and early with Celltrion's treatment. In the early spring of this year, due to treatment and early screening of the nation, the world's first 'corona-free country' was made, but dependence on treatment failed.
The government implemented a policy of asymptomatic testing and speeding up the vaccination rate as the ‘vaccine herd immunity’, which relied on the introduction of vaccines, was added to this year’s K-immunity program as the epidemic became more prevalent in the winter of last year.
Jung Eun-kyung, head of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC), announced on the 25th of last month that “With Corona” was implemented, “recovery of daily life is carried out in three steps at 6-week intervals.” From December 13th, large-scale events are allowed without limiting the number of people who have been vaccinated, and from January 24th of next year, the quarantine policy has been announced to completely remove restrictions on private gatherings.
Director Jung said on the 22nd, "As a result of discussion after consultation with the government's risk assessment and the Quarantine and Medical Subcommittee of the Daily Recovery Support Committee, last week (November 14-20), the risk of COVID-19 was 'high' nationwide and 'very high' in the metropolitan area. , and non-metropolitan areas were evaluated as 'intermediate'," he said.
