		</div><p>South Korea’s president is urging citizens not to let their guard down, but said there is no reason to panic amid fears of a new surge in the coronavirus outbreak in the country.</p>
<p>President Moon Jae-in made the comments in a speech on Sunday as his health authorities detected a slew of new cases linked to nightclubs in Seoul’s Itaewon district in recent days.</p>
<p>Officials on Friday said they detected at least 15 infections linked to a 29-year-old man who had visited three Itaewon clubs before testing positive on Wednesday.</p>
<p>Earlier, South Korea’s caseload had been waning for weeks, prompting authorities to relax their social distancing rules.</p>
<p><i>“The infection cluster which recently occurred in entertainment facilities has raised awareness that, even during the stabilisation phase, similar situations can arise again anytime, anywhere in an enclosed, crowded space,”</i> President Moon Jae-in said.</p>
<p>He added: <i>“We must never lower our guard regarding epidemic prevention.” </i>But he also said “<i>there’s no reason to stand still out of fear”</i>.</p>
<p>Mr Moon said South Korea has “<i>the right quarantine and medical systems combined with experience to respond quickly to any unexpected infection clusters that might occur”</i>.</p>
<p>Figures released on Sunday by the Korea Centres for Disease Control and Prevention increased national totals to 10,874 with 256 deaths.</p>
<p>The agency said 9,610 people have recovered and 10,128 others were undergoing tests to determine whether they have contracted the virus.</p>
