In the heart of Seoul, Dr. Kim Sang-il, president of H Plus Yangji Hospital, is spearheading a transformative approach to combat COVID-19. Known as one of South Korea's frontline defenders against the pandemic, Dr. Kim and his dedicated team have introduced an innovative method called the \"single infection safety treatment booth.\"
This groundbreaking method significantly enhances the efficiency of COVID-19 detection, enabling the identification of 70-80 patients within an eight-hour shift. This marks a tenfold increase compared to traditional testing methods, allowing for faster and more reliable results.
The success of this method has not gone unnoticed. Over 20 hospitals across South Korea have adopted the single infection safety treatment booth, revolutionizing the nation's response to the pandemic. By streamlining the testing process, doctors like Dr. Kim are able to save more time and, importantly, more lives.
As South Korea continues to navigate the challenges of COVID-19, innovations like Dr. Kim's testing booth play a crucial role in ensuring public health and safety, setting a benchmark for healthcare systems worldwide.
