Fifty-one recovered COVID-19 patients in South Korea tested positive again for the virus after leaving quarantine, said health officials in the country this week.

The patients from Daegu, in the southern part of the country, tested positive for the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus in a “relatively short time” after they were cleared from their initial COVID-19 cases, said the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) in a report carried by the Yonhap News Agency.
