[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-ho] Sangju City announced that, as COVID-19 continues to spread and social distancing measures have been extended until the end of January, it will conduct a mask-wearing promotion campaign at the Jungang Market 5-day Market at 1 PM on the 22nd.
This campaign aims to raise awareness among merchants and citizens about COVID-19 and encourage joint efforts to prevent its spread, coinciding with the reopening of the 5-day Market, which had been closed until now.
About 20 employees from the Safety Disaster Division, Economic Enterprise Division, and General Affairs Division, including Mayor Kang Young-seok of Sangju City, will participate in the campaign. They will promote the message that "Wearing a mask is the best vaccine against COVID-19" and distribute 2,000 KF-94 masks to market merchants and citizens.
Mayor Kang Young-seok emphasized, "Since many confirmed cases are occurring through personal contact, it is important to wear masks in daily life," adding, "Wearing masks and thoroughly managing personal hygiene are the best preventive measures against COVID-19."
