SEOUL - South Korea reported 571 new coronavirus cases on Friday, taking its total number of infections to 2,337, the largest outbreak outside China where the epidemic began late last year.

The outbreak, which has killed 13 people in South Korea, has also dented the popularity of President Moon Jae-in, a poll showed. The government circulated a list of about 310,000 Shincheonji members to local governments for checks, vice health minister Kim Gang-lip told a briefing. Foreign investors offloaded as much as 2.8 trillion won worth of stocks on the main board for the week, posting the biggest weekly foreign net outflow in nearly 9 years.

Realmeter, which surveyed some 1,500 people on Tuesday and Wednesday, said Moon’s popularity fell to 44.7%, down from about 50% before the country confirmed its first case of virus infection on Jan. 20.
