DAEGU, South Korea (Reuters) - The malls and restaurants in Daegu were empty and streets eerily quiet on Friday after the number of cases of coronavirus in South Korea doubled overnight to 204, almost all of them in and around the fourth largest city.
Many of the infections were traced to a 61-year-old woman, identified as "Patient 31" who had attended services at a church in the city, which, along with a funeral attended by several members of the same church, created what health authorities have called a "super-spreading event".
