The government has examined 1,233,486 people in its handling of COVID-19. Of these, 1,070,602 tested negative, while 162,884 were diagnosed positive for the disease.

Based on data from Thursday (August 27th), 21,018 people were examined in a single day. This figure is the highest number achieved by the government in COVID-19 testing since last March. The testing ratio increased to 4,510 people per one million population.

However, the average number of weekly tests conducted by the government is still below the World Health Organization (WHO) standard. The organization estimates that Indonesia should be able to test 267,700 people per week. Currently, Indonesia has only been able to test approximately 125,000 people in the last week.
