1. My Argument : Korea should not let the foreign infectious korean patient return to korea.
- Recently, in south-west africa eblola viruses are broken up. Not only africans are infected but many foreigners are infected too. The problem of ebola virus is getting serious, so the government of Korea also prepares measures. Last month in USA, the argue about returning of doctor Kent Brantly who contracted the ebola virus at Liberia was hot issue. On SNS, many people disagreed this returnig and propsed the plot that the government of USA use the virus to control the people. However, the patient returned to his country, USA. Fortunately, the doctor become better thanks to the medical system of USA. This case just only can be applied in the country having methodical medical system or disease control center. Basically, Korea also let the infectious korean patient return to Korea when the patient is abroad. Becuase Korea does not have any medical system or disease control center enough to care the patient. If the patient come into Korea, the possiblity of spread of disease is getting higher rapidly.2. How I found my argument
My research question was 'what is the current way of the government when foreign infectious disease patient outbreaks?' I found the answer in this news http://news.donga.com/3/all/20030427/7938744/1. Basically, If korean contracts the infectious disease, the government make him or her return to korea (when the patient agrees this) and seperate the patient and treat him or her. Another question was
'Is there real example that serious problem outbreaks when international infectious disease patient returns one’s country?' I also could found the example. In Honkong, 2009, the period of the entrance of the internationl students from the USA and Canada, swine flu were flowed to Honkong.
3. New reseaerch quesiton
- In korea, are there any control center to control the disease and study them?
