Jakarta's COVID-19 Cases Continue to Rise, Lockdown Considered an Option
- A Small
- A Medium
- A Bigger
The Jakarta Provincial Government is currently exploring the option of implementing a weekend lockdown. This is because the Public Activity Restrictions (PPKM) that have been in place for three weeks have not yet reduced the spread of Covid-19 in the capital city.
Based on data from the Jakarta Provincial Health Office, the number of new coronavirus cases is still recorded in the range of three thousand new cases per day. It even reached 3,792 cases on January 22nd.
Therefore, the total number of active cases reached 25,277 as of Thursday (February 4th). This figure is an accumulation of those undergoing treatment in hospitals and self-isolation.
