Military Police Command issues a press release following media reports that "it is believed that many people in the Military Police Training Center have been diagnosed with a disease! Dormitory beds are covered only with plastic film, while officers have said that rapid test kits are used only when there are inspections."

1. Plastic film is used to reduce the risk of personnel contact and prevent infections between beds. If a trainee is diagnosed with an illness, personnel within the same dormitory are deemed close contacts according to regulations.

2. Command has prepared a sufficient supply of various anti-epidemic materials, and rapid test kits are used according to the regulations. Confirmed cases and close contacts are quarantined at home based on the guidance of the Central Epidemic Command Center so the media reports are not factual.
