Indonesia's COVID-19 Task Force recorded a positivity rate of 20.01% in June 2021. This figure is double the previous month's rate of 10.72%.

The coronavirus positivity rate reached 26.05% in January 2021. However, the percentage began to decline from February to May 2021. Indeed, Indonesia's coronavirus positivity rate reached its lowest point in May 2021, at 11.77%.

Despite this, the positivity rate increased again in June 2021. The average even reached 26.76% in the first four days of July 2021, far exceeding the World Health Organization (WHO) threshold of 5%.

The high positivity rate indicates that the number of people tested for COVID-19 in Indonesia remains low. Testing is, however, a crucial step in detecting and suppressing the spread of the coronavirus.

Therefore, it is essential for the government to increase the rate of coronavirus testing. Furthermore, the public is urged to diligently implement the 3M health protocols: wearing masks, maintaining distance, and washing hands with soap.
