South Korea Coronavirus Update

China is reporting no new cases of coronavirus, but it’s a little hard to believe any data that comes out of China. In a country with over 1 billion people are we really to believe that there isn’t a single new case?

South Korea is another matter. South Korea has tested broadly—over 300,000 tests and their data is more trustworthy. The chart below shows the total confirmed cases of Covid-19 in South Korea, and the total active cases.

South Korea has a population of about 50 million people with total known active cases of 6,618 or .013% of the population.
