Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Rasyid Baswedan, raised his voice on the current conditions of Covid-19 driving in the capital. Anies believes that the current situation is worrying.
“Today the working group held a special meeting to assess the latest developments in the Covid-19 case in Jakarta because the situation is alarming,” Anies said in Jakarta on Wednesday (9/9/2020), as reported by CNN Indonesia.
“In the last week, the positivity rate in Jakarta was 13.2%. Last week. Overall, from the beginning until now, our positive rate is around 6.9%. 13.2% in Jakarta and 18.4% in Indonesia, “he continued.
The former Minister of Education and Culture said this was a worrying condition because the government had to balance the health facilities it had. The number of uncontrolled cases will have an impact on the management and government-owned health facilities.
Why bother? Because the capacity of the hospital has a limit. If the amount that requires treatment increases day by day, beyond the capacity of the hospital and the number of medical personnel, then we will face big problems, ”said Anies.
Therefore, this afternoon we will review and prepare a new policy, ”he continued.
Anies has not explained more about the policy he will take. She only said that she would hold a meeting with the Covid-19 work team. Not forgetting, Anies again reminded the public to go back to wearing masks and applying disciplined health protocols.
“Because that’s the key. Later in the afternoon we will review it and announce it,” Anies said.
Earlier, Anies said it would issue a policy package after the transitional period of Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) ended. The policy package is a continuation of the policies from the previous phase related to the management of Covid-19 at DKI Jakarta.
“Because our PSBB cycle will end on the 9th and at that time we will deliver a policy package for the next phase,” Anies said at the Jakarta city hall complex on Monday (7/9/2020).
Quoted from the site corona.jakarta.go.id, the number of positive cases as of Tuesday (8/9/2020) in Jakarta was 48,811 cases and those who died were 1,330 people. 36,451 cases were recovered in Jakarta or about 74.7%.
