Nearly all surveyed drug sellers (i.e. pharmacists) in the capital city of Seoul indicated a decrease, whether small or large, in outpatient prescriptions following the COVID-19 outbreak in South Korea in early 2020. This trend matches that of most other regions in Korea. Only a small share of four percent of the pharmacists in Seoul said there had been no change or even increases in prescriptions. This decrease is attributed to fewer hospital visits in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis.
