In order to cut off the spread of COVID-19, especially in the Omicron variant which has milder symptoms than the previous variant, the public is expected to immediately vaccinate against COVID-19 at the nearest health facility so that they can be more protected and do not experience severe symptoms if they are later infected with the virus. Therefore, it is hoped that all parties will jointly maintain safe and controlled conditions through the application of health protocols that include 3M such as wearing masks that do not sag, diligently washing hands with soap under running water for 20 seconds, and maintaining a distance of one to two meters between each other.
