South Korea’s Daily COVID Case Rate Falls Below 13,000

If anyone cares at this point there has been a steep drop in daily COVID cases in South Korea which so happens to coincide with the dropping of many COVID protocols:

 South Korea’s new COVID-19 cases fell below 20,000 on Monday after staying in the 20,000s for the previous three days amid waning virus infections and fewer tests over the extended weekend. 

The country reported 12,150 new COVID-19 infections, including 132 from overseas, bringing the total caseload to 24,831,761, the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA) said.

The latest virus wave, triggered by the spread of a highly contagious omicron variant, has been on a decline since mid-August, when it peaked at more than 180,000 cases.
