Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia– The president of the Committee for the Management of Covid-19 and National Economic Recovery (KCPEN) Airlangga Hartarto, explained that the average percentage of active cases of Covid-19 was 19.97%, improving compared to a few months ago that it was in 22.1%.
Meanwhile, the recovery rate in data from October 11, 2020 showed an increase of 76.48%, higher than the 75.0% of the previous month due to a decrease in active cases in several provinces.
“For death cases, Indonesia currently has 3.55% compared to 2.88% globally. If we look at the 11 priority provinces, we see that DKI has a high recovery rate of 82.17%, then the rate death rate is 2.2%. West Java 64.11%, the death rate is low 1.9%, “said Airlangga, who is also the Coordinating Minister of Economy, on Monday (12/10/2020).
Another positive news, Airlangga said, is that the national hospital occupancy fell to 48.68%, while independent isolation fell to 47.59%. “So if we pay attention, that in the control of this disease, 8 priorities are well controlled and related to testing, tracking and treatment have also been correctly performed based on standards,” he explained.
The chairman of the Covid-19 task force, Lieutenant General Doni Monardo, highlighted the trend of decreasing mortality in the nine priority provinces, of which only one has yet to decline, namely Bali. The East Java and Papua provinces, which had risen but fell again last week.
The same is true of the recovery rate, said Doni Monardo, whose trend is increasing in priority provinces except Papua. The PUPR Ministry, the Ministry of Health and the Covid-19 Management Working Group are working together to build a Covid-19 Hospital in Biak.
“With the existence of the Biak Covid-19 Hospital, it is expected that people in Yapen and Biak Numfor will not need to be treated in Jayapura. It is enough in Biak,” said Doni Monardo.
Regarding the Mandiri isolation hotel prepared by the central government in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and the Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI), Doni explained that there were five hotels in use in Jakarta. In other areas, such as North Sumatra, Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam, Bali and South Sulawesi also exist. In Makassar City, South Sulawesi, from the very beginning, they have used hotels as self-isolation facilities for the community.
“The same happens with other cities. However, not all the prepared hotels have been fulfilled because the conditions in the field are not as many as those previously calculated ”, said Doni Monardo.
Doni Monardo warned that Covid-19 is never underestimated because more than 36 million people have been infected worldwide. He also asked everyone to always be disciplined when implementing health protocols, namely #pakaimasker, #jagajarak and #cucitanganpakaisabun.
“3M’s discipline is not comparable to the struggles of physicians and healthcare workers in treating Covid-19 patients,” Doni said.
