The Covid-19 Task Force for Acceleration of Handling states that the distribution of various medical equipment and materials (almatkes) to the 34 provinces in Indonesia is still ongoing. Based on data from Saturday (April 11th), millions of items comprising six types of almatkes have been distributed.
Surgical masks are the most widely distributed item, reaching 13,400,084 units. Meanwhile, 1,189,952 units of personal protective equipment (PPE) have been sent to regions. This distribution of almatkes aims to meet the needs of health workers in handling Covid-19.
The Head of the Covid-19 Task Force for Acceleration of Handling, Doni Monardo, will continue to prioritize the availability of almatkes. This is to prevent the collapse of health workers in carrying out their duties. Currently, various parties are also striving to produce PPE with certified local components from the World Health Organization (WHO).
