Many people still doubt the government's Covid-19 data.

The Indonesian government consistently releases updated data on the development of COVID-19 in Indonesia. This information was made public after the government faced criticism regarding data transparency. However, a significant portion of the public remains hesitant and distrustful of the government's data.

A survey by Roda Tiga Konsultan reveals that only 45.2% of respondents trust the data on the number of confirmed cases, deaths, and recoveries from COVID-19. Slightly below that, 43.5% of respondents are hesitant about the published data. This is followed by respondents who do not believe the data (8.3%) and those who don't know/did not answer (3.1%).

The national survey, "Public Perception of COVID-19 Pandemic Handling," was conducted from May 7-17, 2020. The study reached 1,200 respondents from 34 provinces.
