South Korea evolves new measures to prevent new cases of COVID-19

Museums, nightclubs and karaoke bars have closed in and around South Korea’s capital, Seoul.

The closure comes as COVID-19 cases reach a five-month high.

The country reported another 297 new cases today, the highest daily figure since March.

South Korea is viewed as one of the world’s coronavirus success stories for its management of the disease.

But a spike in new cases linked mostly to a church has sparked concerns of a wider outbreak.
