The daily case count for locally-transmitted COVID-19 infections has slipped to a single digit.
 
The Central Quarantine Countermeasures Headquarters said on Friday that nine additional people were locally infected throughout Thursday.
 
Including eleven imported infections, 20 additional people tested positive for COVID-19, raising the accumulated total to 14-thousand-519.
 
It was the first time in four days that the daily increase in local infections dipped to a single digit. Concerns remain, however, as infections related to a church, a business and a restaurant in Seoul are on the rise.
 
Meanwhile, one more person has died of the virus, bringing the death toll to 303.
