The Indonesian government continues to encourage mass testing for Covid-19 to reach more people across the country. Based on data from Thursday (June 18th), the government has tested 580,522 specimens.
While daily specimen testing by the government still fluctuates, last Thursday the government successfully tested 20,650 specimens in a single day. This figure represents the highest number of specimens tested to date, exceeding the recent target set by President Joko Widodo of 20,000 specimens per day.
In identifying Covid-19, more than one specimen sample may be taken from an individual to identify the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Specimen testing methods are divided into two types: Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) and Rapid Molecular Test (TCM).
