South Korea’s Daily Coronavirus Infection Numbers Drops to Double Digits for Six Straight Days
|Apparently the long holiday weekend which led to less testing is what may have caused this drop:
South Korea’s new coronavirus cases stayed below 100 for the sixth straight day Tuesday, but the country is bracing for a possible resurgence in new infections after a long holiday, as a slew of sporadic clusters were reported.
The country added 75 more COVID-19 cases, including 66 local infections, raising the total caseload to 24,239, according to the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA).
It marked a slight rise from 73 posted on Monday and 64 cases reported on Sunday.
After daily infections hit 133 on Wednesday last week, they have been in double-digit figures. The drop was in part attributed to fewer tests carried out over the five-day Chuseok holiday that ran through Sunday.
