Abstract:

Until the beginning of 2021 the Covid-19 pandemic has not been resolved. In the world there are about 95 million cases and more than 2 million deaths. In Indonesia, people are already talking about the possibility of 1 million cases in the not too distant future, and the death rate is approaching 30,000. What really needs to be watched out for is our positivity rate which is around 20% and even in a few days to 30%, even though we know the recommendation of WHO (World Health Organization) is only 5%. The positivity rate shows how much transmission occurs in the community. And our figure shows four times or even six times the WHO figure. Corona has a huge impact on the economic and social sectors of the world. And this of course must be tackled with great care.
