Hello Reporter
You wrote the news as if the people who came from Korea with Co-19.
How much degree they have? And the high fever nowadays means Co-19 symptom?
So What Is the Conclusion?
You must explane the result evaluated from Hospital.
Thay might have Co-19 and might not.
I am Korean and Korea has little amount infedted people than any other country in the world.
Just Korea wants zero infection that why Korea make the news enoumously than that the country have.
Do not make your report Korea as such a very dangrous countray that can make very big infection.
Korea is not your tool for concentraing interesting.
That is a wonderful country that has more than 50000000 population.
And also there is no country compare to Korea in every aspect.
