Corona Map (http://coronamap.site/) One of the sites, built by a student from Kyunghee University, is the latest figures on confirmed and suspected cases. The different circles and colored lines, which indicate the people who have been diagnosed with the virus, show their movements in the country.
The map, which went online on January 30 when the country had six cases, drew nearly 8 million visits in the first five days of its launch, said site developer Lee Dong-hoon in an interview radio with the MBC channel.
Another card that is gaining popularity is Corona Nearby (https://corona-nearby.com/). The latter, developed by four students from Korea University, has a more user-friendly interface that allows users to enter their location and see the places concerned nearby. Users can also see the hospitals and health centers that potential patients are likely to visit.
A real-time table that contains a variety of information related to the new coronavirus is also in vogue. The site is available at Wuhanvirus.kr, which refers to the Chinese city where the virus first appeared. Using government and academic data from South Korea, China, and the United States, as well as the World Health Organization, the site displays suspected and confirmed cases locally and globally.

As part of measures to contain the disease, the government has issued an entry ban for all foreigners who have visited Hubei province since January 21.
People with symptoms of the new coronavirus can call 1339, a service run by the Korean Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Translation services are provided. Foreign nationals in the country can also call 1345 at any time of the day for information on the virus..
