Seoul officials Thursday named Sinchon, Hongdae and Nagwon-dong as new Covid-19 hot spots, hinting at possible links to the Itaewon cluster.
Health officials added four more bars and clubs in Itaewon to their Covid-19 hot spots after tracing patients to them, up from the five previously known clubs in the multicultural neighborhood in central Seoul.
A new coronavirus hot spot in Seoul’s multicultural hub of Itaewon infected 86 people by Monday noon, up from 54 the day before as health officials scramble to track down young partygoers.
At least 13 more cases of the novel coronavirus were confirmed Friday, associated with a patient who visited clubs and bars in Seoul's popular multicultural neighborhood of Itaewon over the past weekend.
