Hello, everyone!
As of this morning, North Korea confirmed its first COVID-related deaths in the nation, while hundreds of thousands are experiencing fever symptoms, hinting at the DPRK’s first COVID-19 breakout.
Because of Pyongyang's limited testing capabilities, experts estimate the infections to be higher than current reports of “187,800 people are being treated in isolation,” and “350,000 people” who have shown signs of a fever.
In light of this news, South Korean president Yoon Suk-yeol promises medical aid and vaccines to North Korean citizens, announcing further inter-Korean negotiations.
