Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The coordinating Minister of Economy, Airlangga Hartarto, affirmed that the number of Covid-19 tests carried out by Indonesia reached 288 thousand in the period of January 10 to 16, 2021. With this figure, Indonesia exceeded the WHO standard in the Covid-19 test.

“The WHO standard is 10% per 1000 people, so at least Indonesia reaches 107.69% of the WHO standard,” Airlangga said at a press conference on Thursday (1/21/2021 ).

However, Health Minister (Menkes) Budi Gunadi Sadikin (BGS) revealed that the tracking, monitoring and treatment or 3T strategy developed by Indonesia for the Covid-19 pandemic was misdirected.

Budi revealed that what to look for is epidemiology, not independent tests, tests on people who are in the suspicious category of Covid-19. He gave an example that he could be tested for the Covid-19 swab up to five times a week because he entered the State Palace and met with President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).

“The suspect should not be someone who wants to travel like Budi Gunadi Sadikin who wants to confront the president. Later the WHO (World Health Organization) standard of testing one per thousand per week is met, but there is no point in testing it. . epidemiologically, “explained Budi Gunadi Sadikin.

Budi Gunadi Sadkin suggested that improving adherence and discipline to health protocols, such as wearing masks, washing hands, and keeping distance, should involve PKK (Family Well-Being Education) mothers.

“Apart from the police, what are you afraid of, the wife, right? So the approach is through the wife later [mereka] tell your husband or threaten children to diligently wash their hands, keep their distance and wear masks, “concluded Budi Gunadi Sadikin.
