The hospital was in shock.
The findings of 34 people who declared positive at the same time simultaneously surprised the RSU Dr. Soetomo Surabaya.
“The results are indeed very surprising. This is evidence that Covid-19 is an infectious virus, a virus that spreads rapidly,” RSU Managing Director Dr. Friday said Friday (1/5/2020) Soetomo Surabaya, Dr. Joni Wahyuhadi.
The Chairman of the East Java Covid-19 Coordination Healing Task Force said the results were not usual.
Because in previous cases, the number of positive cases has never been so high.
In this case, the number of patients who were positive was even 70 percent more than the evaluated patients.
Even then, not all employees suspected of undergoing a hyssop test.
There are still 54 more employees who will carry out the PCR swab test in the second group.
“The remaining second wave sampled on Friday and the results were the fastest on Saturday,” Joni said.
