Korea to downgrade COVID-19 infection level to lowest like seasonal flu


Korea will lower the infection level of COVID-19 to the lowest category to manage the disease like seasonal flu, lifting nearly all antivirus curbs and fully returning to pre-pandemic normalcy, health authorities said Wednesday.
The move came as the number of COVID-19 infections dropped for the first time in nearly two months last week.
