COVID-19 downgraded to Level 2 infectious disease
코로나19 감염병 등급 2등급으로 하향 조정


By Lee Hyo-jin

Starting Monday, eating snacks in cinemas, sports venues, planes, long-distance buses and interregional trains will be allowed, as the government has further eased antivirus regulations amid the phased transition to post-Omicron daily life.
포스트 오미크론 일상으로의 단계적인 ‘이행기' 가운데 정부가 방역 수칙을 추가적으로 완화하며 월요일부터 영화관, 경기장, 항공기, 시외버스 및 열차에서 취식이 허용된다.


In addition to their decision to remove social distancing measures on business operating hours and private gatherings from April 15, the health authorities have announced they are easing additional COVID-19 measures, except for the mask wearing requirement.
15일부터 영업 시간 및 사적 모임에 대한 사회적 거리두기 조치 해제 결정하며 보건 당국은 마스크 착용 의무를 제외한 부차적인 코로나19 조치를 해제한다고 발표했다.


Moviegoers and spectators at sport events will now be able to enjoy snacks, while department stores and supermarkets will be able to offer food samples to customers ― which has been prohibited since last July.
영화 관람객 및 스포츠 경기 관중은 이제 간식을 즐길 수 있으며 백화점과 대형마트에서는 고객에게 지난해 7월부터 금지되었던 시식 제공이 가능하다.


In addition, face-to-face visits to nursing homes will be temporarily allowed from April 30 through May 22. Until now, only contactless visits through transparent barriers were permitted to prevent COVID-19 infections from spreading among vulnerable elderly patients living in the facilities.
또 요양병원 대면 방문이 4월 30일부터 5월 22일까지 한시적으로 허용된다. 지금까지는 시설에 거주하는 취약한 고령 환자들 사이 코로나19 감염 확산 예방을 위해 투명 보호막을 통한 비접촉 면회만이 허용되었다.


The health ministry noted that in-person visits will be allowed in a limited fashion for visitors who have been administered with a booster shot and elderly residents at nursing homes who have received a second booster, or those who have recently recovered from the coronavirus.
보건 당국은 대면 면회는 3차 이상 접종을 마친 면회객, 입소자의 경우 4차 접종까지 완료한 고령자, 또는 최근 확진 후 격리 해제된 사람에게만 제한적인 방식으로 허용된다고 강조했다.


Moreover, the government has decided to downgrade the infectious disease status of COVID-19 to Level 2, after the virus was categorized as Level 1, the highest level in its four-tier system, for more than two years.
또 정부는 코로나 바이러스가 4단계 체계에서 최고 단계인 1등급으로 구분된 지 2년이 넘게 지난 후 코로나19의 감염병 등급을 2등급으로 하향 조정하기로 결정했다.


KEY WORDS
■ downgrade (등급 등을) 격하시키다
■ venue 장소
■ ease 느슨하게 풀다
■ fashion 방법, 방식
■ administer (약을) 투여하다
■ tier 단계
