Panic As 91 Recovered Patients Have Tested Positive Again

Seoul health authorities have announced that more than 90 people who fully recovered from the novel coronavirus have tested positive again.

The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) said a total of 91 people had tested positive for coronavirus after they were released from quarantine.

KCDC Director-General Jeong Eun-kyeong said a viral test on such cases was underway, with the results expected at least two weeks later, unlike regular swab tests used to test for COVID-19 that shows results in a relatively shorter time.

“We are isolating viral cells from respiratory organs of those who have tested positive for COVID-19 again,” Jeong told reporters.
