초등5학년∼고교생•입원자•요양입소자도 마스크 대리구매 가능<br /><br />Starting Monday,... South Korea is easing restrictions on so-called proxy purchases of protective face masks,... so people who find it difficult to buy masks themselves can have others buy masks for them.<br />The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety said on Sunday that the government will broaden the scope of people who can have others buy them face masks.<br />It includes 5th and 6th grade elementary school students, middle and high school students, inpatients, and also those in nursing homes.<br />Until now, proxy purchases were limited to the disabled, children born in or after 2010, the elderly born in or before 1940, pregnant women, and some other groups.<br />The ministry says these changes will allow an additional 4-and-a-half million people in the country to have masks bought on their behalf.<br />
