“At the meeting we all saw and examined, then 70 percent of COVID-19 infections for 14 days. Examined from an epidemiological perspective, PSBB is not enough for 14 days,” Khofifah explained.
“Also, there is a PSBB assessment, so we both agree that there will be an extension of the PSBB in Greater Surabaya. From May 12 to May 25, that’s something like that,” he continued.
