SEOUL [How to investigate epidemiology and containment of contacts]

Through the credit card details, CCTV analysis, and mobile phone location information, we identify concretely the moving line of the confirmed person, and transparently disclose the moving line of the confirmed person to prevent further infection of the general public and to check whether they have contacted themselves.

In particular, an immediate response team is dispatched to areas where patients are collectively located to conduct epidemiological investigations by patient case.

All contacts found through epidemiological investigations are self-isolated, and the government and local governments thoroughly manage self-isolators through 1:1 management. Self-isolators are prohibited from leaving Korea for 14 days, regardless of symptoms. In the case of self-isolation violations, fines of up to 10 million won or imprisonment for up to one year are imposed.
