[Photo] Citizens Leaving for Seollal... Quiet Screening Clinics

On the 28th, a day before the Lunar New Year holiday, despite fears of the COVID-19 Omicron variant and the government's request to refrain from traveling home, the domestic terminal at Gimpo Airport in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, is crowded with passengers. On the same day, the screening clinic at the Gangseo-gu Public Health Center appears quieter than usual. Health authorities are anxiously concerned that the Omicron variant may spread further during the Lunar New Year holiday. /Reporter Moon Honam munonam@
