Health authorities called on the public to be vigilant against COVID-19, as the number of infections is resurging while people are engaging in more outdoor activities amid mild spring weather.
They have asked the public to adhere to social distancing measures and personal hygiene, adding the third wave of the pandemic is still ongoing.
According to the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA), Monday, last week's reproduction rate was 1.07, meaning one person spread the virus to 1.07 people on average. This was up from 0.94 recorded a week earlier.
