SEOUL: The South Korean government plans to raise the nation's disease alert level against the A/H1N1 influenza from the second-highest to the top level as the pace of the virus spread is growing faster, health authorities said Monday.

According to the Ministry for Health, Welfare and Family Affairs, the announcement on raising the alert status is to be made Tuesday afternoon.

The move comes as there were an average 8,857 people confirmed as having infected the Influenza A every day last week from 4,420 tallied the week before.

South Korea has been maintaining its second-highest "orange" level of disease alert since July 21.
