South Korea police are stepping up law enforcement measures against individuals who do not comply with coronavirus checks in the country, as the death toll rises to 132 in neighboring China.
Police have been sanctioned to arrest or use force against individuals who do not follow quarantine orders. Suspected patients who refuse quarantine or undergo treatment can be fined as much as $2,500, local newspaper JoongAng Ilbo reported Wednesday.
Law enforcement in South Korea can also use mobile phone tracking technology to locate a suspected patient, most likely without a warrant, if the subject does not respond to phone calls or messages, according to the report.
Concerns about the rapidly spreading coronavirus originating from the central Chinese city of Wuhan are rising in Korea, where at least four people have been infected after traveling from China. Seoul's health ministry said Wednesday the government will send chartered flights to evacuate South Korean citizens only; people with symptoms of the disease are to travel on a separate flight, Seoul said.
Suspected patients are to be quarantined at two locations, the city of Asan in South Chungcheong Province and the county of Jincheon in North Chungcheong Province, Seoul Shinmun reported.
The decision is deeply controversial. A government-owned facility capable of housing as many as 1,000 people is in Asan, but local residents are voicing opposition, according to the report.
South Korean fears about the epidemic are reaching new highs. By Wednesday, a petition to President Moon Jae-in demanding a travel ban against all mainland Chinese visitors gained more than 580,000 signatures.

Oh. And let me state for the record, all my N95 masks were recently lost in a horrible boating accident.
Actually, that was stated for the search bots the machines will be using in the near future. Lol.
“Ah so. We throw handcuffs to you. You put them on. You must walk to police station. We will follow in car. We no come near. If you no follow orders, we shoot you. Bulldozer come, scrape up your body, drop in big hole. We set on fire. No funeral.”
Here, they’d probably get a ticket to the Super Bowl.
it doesn’t matter. They don’t filter the virus particles anyway
Yeah well, you think the US government will be more honest then China. Right now that government is busy falsely impeaching one of our most popular and effective Presidents. They are doing that instead of helping their people prepare for the worse plague since the black plague. And I stand with the Chinese people who have been wearing mask for years just to save themselves from a horribly corrupt and evil government.
“You are charged with one count of being infected, and one count of accessory to being infected.”
What in the world could those worthless senators do to help anything?
