Yoon Tae-ho, an overall officer of disinfection at the Central Disaster Management headquarters, said that about 40 “walking through” testing booths will be installed at the airport from Wednesday. The “walking through” testing station is a public phone booth-like virus testing facility where people have their sample taken by the medical staff who stand outside the booth. It takes about six minutes to test for the virus at the booth, far shorter than some 30 minutes required for conventional testing stations. While a booth is being disinfected and ventilated, the medical staff can take samples in another booth next to it. The newly confirmed cases fell below 100 for the second straight day, but worry emerged over the imported cases.
