So far 50 killed in North Korea, 1.2 million people are battling fever, Kim Jong launched the army

Corona continues to wreak havoc in North Korea. The news of the death of 8 people due to fever has come to light here on Sunday. Not only this, 392,920 new people have got symptoms of fever. On the other hand, Kim Jong Un has strongly reprimanded the authorities for the delay in the supply of medicines amidst increasing cases of corona virus. Along with this, he has decided to launch the army to control the corona infection.

Kim Jong Un has ordered the army to take to the field against the epidemic in the capital Pyongyang. It has been told by the North Emergency Anti Virus Headquarters that since the end of April, 12 lakh people have come under the grip of fever. About 564,860 people are still in quarantine.

What statistics are you hiding? Korea

On Sunday, 8 people died in North Korea. So far, a total of 50 people have lost their lives due to fever. However, it has not yet been confirmed by North Korea that how many people with fever, or those who died, were affected by the corona.

Experts say that given North Korea's poor health care system, delaying the prevention of corona virus infection can have serious consequences. North Korea has a population of around 26 million. It is being told that most of the population has not been vaccinated. In fact, here the government had also rejected the help of the vaccine given by the UN Vaccine Program, so that it could avoid international monitoring.

North Korea confirms first case of Corona

North Korea admitted its first corona case last Thursday. It was told from North Korea that many people have been found to be corona positive from the Omicron variant in Pyongyang. However, for two years, North Korea continued to claim that not a single case was reported in the country of Corona. Whereas since 2020, cases of corona have been reported almost everywhere in the world.

Kim rebuked government and health department officials for taking late steps against the pandemic during a meeting on Sunday. According to North Korea's state news agency, Kim said, the officials showed irresponsible attitude and did not supply medicines on time to the pharmacy. Kim has ordered that an army medical unit be deployed to supply medicines to Pyongyang.
