Secondary infections (e.g. infection to the families) and 6 infection between family members are not reflected in this map. This map may not reflect the latest situation of the infection, or number of cases in each prefecture. PCR Testing system for novel corona virus covered by medical insurance ○If a public health center decides that a patient is out of the scope of administrative testing, doctors can request the test directly to testing institutes with their own decision. 〇For the purpose of preventing in-hospital infection and ensuring the accuracy of the testing, the test is required to be conducted at outpatient facilities for Japanese Returnees and Potential Contacts. ○Moreover, efforts will be made to expand the number of tests to be conducted with insurance coverage, taking into account future improvement in the preparedness of the private sectors. Patients consult visit clinic Family doctors, general medical institutions Consultation by Doctors or patients the Call Center for Japanese Returnees and Potential Contacts Referred to or visit Visit Outpatient facilities for Japanese Returnees To be and Potential Contacts expanded Public health Medical institutions center Private testing with PCR test institute capacity Local public health institutes new test mechanism covered by public medical insurance 7 Novel Corona Virus Test: Capacity and the number of cases tested 〇 Capacity to conduct PCR tests for novel corona virus has been increasing. 〇 As of now, more PCR test capacity is secured than the actual number of conducted tests.

Unmun also represents a landscape indicator species for Daegu and Gyeongbuk provinces, and Luciola lateralis Motschulsky, which is the object of experiential activation at festivals in some cities in the region. The spatial range of this study is limited by Daegu City and Gyeongbuk province, and is used to predict the preference of firefly for altitude, slope, direction, shaded relief, riparian buffer zone, river environment, and farmland to analyze the area that best matches the habitat of fireflies. As a result, fireflies are highly influenced by altitude and there may be no large-scale habitats in some areas through the Nakdong and the Baekdu mountain ranges, which occur at high altitude. In most of the cities, we found major habitats around the streams and wetlands. By region, the sites were widely distributed around the cities focused on Nakdong River, and many habitats emerged around the Nakdong River tributary and gentle slopes.
