Since June 4, Jakarta Health Agency Head, Widyastuti has issued circular letter to health centers (Puskesmas) to perform Active Case Finding as well as Contact Tracing to the residents. The Active Case Finding is carried out by Puskesmas health workers in markets, vulnerable settlements, or other public spaces where COVID-19 transmission cases tend to occur based on epidemiological calculations.

Considering that 55 percent of the confirmed cases are asymptomatic people, Jakarta Task Force for Acceleration of COVID-19 Handling urged citizens to continue implementing 3M protocol against COVID-19, namely:

• Wearing mask properly;

• Keep a safe distance around 1-2 meters;

• Often wash hands with soap.

Furthermore, transitional PSBB protocols should be implemented well by filling 50 percent of room capacity and making sure to leave house in healthy condition. Jakarta Task Force for Acceleration of COVID-19 Handling also appreciates offices that allow 50 percent employees to work from office (WFO). Jakarta Government apparatuses will also continue to monitor compliance in various places, such as malls, tourist attractions, and markets.

"COVID-19 is still around us, so we must be vigilant and always remind our families and people around us to implement 3M protocols against COVID-19," she conveyed.

Jakarta Provincial Government is still opening opportunity for residents who want to provide assistance to the others who affected by COVID-19 through Large-scale Social Collaboration (KSBB) Program. Residents can provide assistance in form of staple food, ready meals, or funds. Detailed information regarding KSBB can be accessed through corona.jakarta.go.id/kolaborasi.
