Identification of the detention zone, which intends to break the transmission cycle, is considered a check size.
Activities in the detention zone include homes to look for cases, testing, contact identification, list, search, and set clear and out points to stop the spread outside the area.
From 1 to 7 January, Daily Caseload has jumped from 332 to 2,901, up 747%.
