The Seoul city government says it will open on Monday a community treatment center to treat COVID-19 patients with mild symptoms at the Taereung national training center in the Nowon District.
The facility will be able to accommodate 210 patients, including those who are asymptomatic.
They will be treated by at least 18 medical staff members supported by Seoul city government officials.
The patients will be tested twice a day for the new coronavirus and if their condition worsens, they will be sent to Boramae Medical Center run by Seoul National University Hospital.■
