New Corona virus infection (COVID-19) occurred at an obstetrics and gynecology hospital in Gangdong-gu, Seoul, and a group of doctors, staff, mothers and families receiving medical treatment were infected. According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government and others on the October 23, a total of 25 people were recently tested and reacted positive in connection with the obstetrics and gynecology clinic in Gangdong-gu. The confirmed patients were 14 hospital workers, including doctors and general staff, 5 patients including mothers, and 6 family members. The hospital's first infected patient reportedly came out on the October 18. After that, the hospital has suspended outpatient treatment and conducted full tests on medical staff and workers in accordance with the guidelines of the quarantine authorities. In addition, individual information messages were sent to patients whose movements overlap with the confirmed patient to recommend a COVID-19 test. But, other mothers and their families, who have not been informed of the details of the infected patient, are sharing their identified information through Internet cafes, saying, "It is frustrating that the hospital is not disclosing the information on the infected patient in detail." One mother's family told News Agency, "The hospital does not inform who was infected, so I am very worried about whether I can give birth after receiving treatment and examination as scheduled on the scheduled schedule," adding, "Other mothers and their families are also anxious." Several similar articles are posted on the Internet cafe that runs by the hospital. One user said, "The epidemiological investigation must have been completed to some extent, so please announce how many of the employees are confirmed, contacts, and active monitors, respectively, and whether additional confirmed cases are made." That way, we will be able to know about the hospital's future operation," he wrote. However, the hospital is faithfully implementing the related procedures in accordance with the guidelines of the quarantine authorities and has no problem disclosing information. A hospital official said in a telephone interview with News Agency, "The health center did not announce the list of confirmed patients because it was instructed not to disclose individual information of confirmed patients," adding, "If patients who are curious about contact with confirmed patients, we transparently inform them." |
