Unfortunately, VIVIZ member Umji had tested positive for COVID-19 on 28 January. As per Big Planet Made’s statement, Umji had already received the two COVID-19 vaccines. However, since a staff member was in close contact with a COVID-19 patient, Umji caught the virus.
At present, she is displaying minor symptoms and is isolating; she will be undergoing home treatment. In addition to this, the other two VIVIZ members (SinB and Eunha) have tested negative. But, because of the incubation period, they will get PCR testing daily to keep their health status in check.
