The COVID-19 Management Working Group (Satgas) revealed that Microcommunity Activity Restrictions (PPKM) will be implemented starting Tuesday (September 2). This policy is based on a decision by President Jokowi.
“Based on a decision by our President, starting on February 9, a micro-scale PPKM will be implemented. This means that there must be a village post, a post that accompanies the puskesmas, that accompanies the monitoring team, so that those who are isolated or in quarantine must be locked up for 14 days. If he is confined, he must be fed, he must be monitored, so here is the problem, “said Alexander K Ginting, head of Health Management of the National COVID-19 Task Force, in a webinar broadcast on the BNPB YouTube channel, the Friday (2/5/2021).
This means that the micro PPKM is a continuation of phase II of the PPKM that ended on February 8, 2021. The background of this micro PPKM is to facilitate the follow-up of COVID-19 cases down to the village level.
“3T we have to carry out contact tracing, trace the confirmed ones, those with suspicious symptoms, those who are close contacts. The problem is, after the tracking team arrives, who is looking at the isolated ones, who is looking at the quarantined. If they are isolated, they cannot be allowed out. Who gives you food and drink? That’s the problem, “Alexander said.
The COVID-19 Working Group added that the PPKM micropolicy consideration was the high transmission of COVID-19 transmission from offices to families. Therefore, this policy is to anticipate the emergence of COVID-19 transmission at the community level.
“This chain of transmission is still ongoing, so the contacts and then the sick are still in the upstream area, so this is our common task. Not only for health people, but also for all existing sectors. , because a pandemic requires a multisectoral intervention, “said Alejandro.
